You came into my life like a meteor
Then disappeared back to New York
/
In September, we had tea and talked about community
There was so much left to explore
/
You invited me to commute
To keep the conversation flowing
/
Walk through Central Park
Pointed out this one cute PUPPAY!!!
We kept on going
/
On a packed train
Talking as if no one else was around
/
We shared our radical thoughts
Our motivations on the same wavelength
/
Why else
/
People are lonely
They want a purpose to live
/
We thought community could give
If only you had lived
/
When we got to NASDAQ
You showed me around
/
We spoke a little more
Before returning back to the ground
/
I left and followed up
Hours and hours and hours of conversation left to be had
/
I guess all I can do now is be glad
You made time for me
Though your time here was scarce
/
Gave me your 100% presence
No distraction
It was clear
/
So much thought had collected into your words
Deep-rooted in your own experience
A thesis left to be heard
/
You flew into and out of my life
Like a meteor burning
Or maybe a shooting star
/
And now all I’m left with are
All too brief chats on Facebook and Slack
A memory of an intense conversation
And your Medium posts
