On this corner

On this corner
you held
my hand as 
we crossed
the street.
On this corner
I rode my
bike and
thought 
I was flying.
On this corner
you made 
a treehouse
and we climbed
it together.
On this corner
you left me
crying.
On this corner
I saw you kissing
another girl.
On this
corner
I held
your phone
and did not
like what I saw.
On this corner
I watched 
you stand
as I drove
away.
On this corner
I became 
a different 
woman.
On this corner
I cried when
you died.
On this corner
I found God.
On this corner
I trusted
someone new.
On this corner
life started again,
and on ths corner
you held my hand
as we crossed
the street and you 
said you 
were 
hopeful.
And on this
new corner
I am hopeful
too.
