I made him cry
sitting next to him
on the airplane

he was teary-eyed
as my questions
rekindled his 
foreign love affair
with American Alicia
not knowing

still lingers there with her like a

a soft opera
a soft soul

he is Swiss
maybe eighteen
and speaks and still dreams
of a girl in a different home

he speaks and still dreams
to find
his new accent

he speaks and still dreams
of a summer visit
next year
from a lost American love

his only
his first
