Israel

I remember on MSN chat when you asked me

“Is Israel a country or a place” or something like that, and from my biblical reference and memory, I said it was a “city.”

Anyway, I’m pro Palestine now, and I wonder where your politics align.

Maybe I’ll never know, and it doesn’t matter, but still, at least for now, that question you asked me so long ago on MSN messenger haunts me.

You’re probably far away from that, tending to what’s in front of you, who loves you and who you love, but for me, I’m reliving the past I the present.

I can only hope you’re pro Palestine, but as I co your to write without a response, I feel you’re more and more diametrically opposed to me, and not even because it makes sense to be, but only for the fact that you want to drive the wedge deeper and create a space even further between us.

And as I continue loving your memory, I wonder how I’m supposed to go on in this world, looking for love, trying to find an equal or greater than how I feel or felt for you.

From the river to the sea.
