opposite me, a window
a crystal thing I see
on it, a raindrop
just as crystal as before it seems.
i stare, i stare blindly
i wait, i wait impatiently
for it to move just suddenly
changing seats, just me
the raindrop not so active
near it, another raindrop
as crystal as before.
i stare, i stare increasingly
i wait, i wait impatiently
for it to talk more freelt
from the drop, sobs escape
it's almost strange to hear
startled, i cradle it
intrigued, i hold it to my ear.
i stare, i stare dumbfoundedly
i wait, i wait impatiently
for it to quiet minisculely
in the reflection of the water
i let a smile grow
gently i kiss it goodbye
for that was all i know
and that was the end
of our silent conversation
where the raindrop cried aghast
and the memory seems too fast.
i sit, i sit a little sleepy
i wait, i wait
(though patiently this time)
for new company again.
