Down the Road

Bela Feketekuty

I saw her
on a Saturday morning
The IT class was full
but she talked and
found the right words

Next Saturday morning
she asked me
about a class assignment
And before we knew it
we talked
about our biotech jobs
and our children

Homework and E-mails
Phone calls and lunches

We played tennis
like beginners
but had lots of fun
She had great legs

We walked
in the park
hand in hand

Still
I could not break
my bonds
of many years

Maybe
there was something there
that I did not know about
Or
It was our children talking
Or
My fear
of guilt and change

I tried to forget her
but failed
Her eyes
Her words
Her impulse

I sent her E-mails
But nothing came back

I tried
to go back
the way it was
But the mirror
was broken

Only our children
kept us going
But they had
their own paths and problems

Work and money
Money and work

Maybe
something
will change
down the road
