Reacquainting Love

By Commander Malachina

Here, I sit in the captain’s chair,

As my love is down on the planet.

I am commanding the Enterprise to communications range,

As my love is helping our captain keep the planet populated.

We are both doing what we are ordered.

Before this battle begun,

I had wonder why we started to act in love again.

But now I know why,

It has to do with the planet’s rings.

We are becoming younger again.

I do wonder how long this is going to last.

Will it end when we leave?

Or will it ever end?

No one knows, not even us.

As I’m thinking about my Imzadi,

I can hear consoles behind me, making noises.

I recognize the sounds,

It’s the sounds that we are being pursued.

We are now under attack

They are trying to stop us

From reaching communications range.

I ask the helmsmen,

How far are we until we are in range to contact Star Fleet?

Through the noises, I here the Helmsmen say

“We are one hour away, sir”

Damn, I say to myself as I think of my Imzadi.

I kept hoping she was in better shape then we are.

Later after our ship was able to contact Star Fleet,

We return of the planet in the Briar Patch.

As I’m standing by my captain,

I hear him contact the away team on the planet to return to the village.

When I reach the planet,

I can see my Imzadi.

I see her wave to me and I wave back.

I ask my Klingon Friend if this could last

And he said possibly.
