Happier Days

Riding BART home from Berkeley
Writing in my journal
Longing for happier days
Passing by my favorite movie theater
Smelling the delicious buttery popcorn
Remembering time with my most recent lover

Myriad times we made the trip
Into culturally diverse Berkeley
Local independent movies
Visuals beget a new world view
Foreign dialogue music to my ears
Full of unfamiliar voices

Finding I'm on the wrong train
Writing this poem, so engrossed
Yearning for happier days
Loving my lover who went away
Waiting for the right train to take me home
