LIKE A SOLILOQUY

Like a soliloquy,
you meander in and out of my life.
Guided by a compass
that is your own.
Your all-weather jacket
lasting through all your adventures,
as ever-present as your smile, and
the small tousle in your hair.

You change only slowly,-
like the time you came back
 having learned to play a bit of sitar.

I hope it is true
that you will never change.
