Now I am grown-up
I am not supposed to daydream.
But I do.

I looked up 'daydreaming' on my phone, whilst drinking coffee in M.Gateau's. The Urban Dictionary said:

" A condition that occurs when one is in deep thought while looking in the same direction for a long time".

But I never look in the same direction for long
When I do it evokes the deepest desires. Beautiful women walking the streets, waiting for the midnight hour, so they can indulge in living.

And as for deep thoughts?

Well, last night I dreamt again that nothing mattered anymore. Including writing poetry. Until then my day was going great.

Now I haven't moved my eyes from the pavement. Gazing at the street shadows made by the sun rays - they are everywhere.

Shadows are like this.
They take over space that we create.
And that is it for the day.

They come in secret when we are not looking and we can not face ourselves alone.

Now I wonder who you think you will see?
I just hope it is me.
Time for another coffee.
Drinking coffee today, I began to daydream.
