I wonder what it would be like If I ever cross paths with you
would you look at me with a silly grin on your face, or look past like you're supposed to-
today I thought of you and where you'd gone and it wasn't a fleeting image it was perhaps a journey I went on all alone-
I found myself walking down this street cluttered with cafes walls entrapping stories, with ours maybe at the bottom I saw smiles and giggles and pitchers - half empty this time.
I knocked on unfamiliar doors, hoping for a gesture of compassion but nothing felt like you, The back of the door was an unending abyss And I still feel trapped in it.
On a lone night, I drove miles and miles In the city which never felt like home- listened to love songs about the moon on the radio as the shadows of us faded away.
I searched for you in the blowing wind and I searched for you in the symphonies of sound and perhaps you were there; but this time I walked right through you.
My mind still wanders to unknown places but this dream ceases to end But if the silence sets in, and it will; I will know that I, perhaps have found you,
and then-
You will remember the lapse of when my bemused head was entangled by your feather thoughts. You will remember the scent of the solitary flowers I kept alive in my pockets. You will remember sunshine bleeding through trees and the gold of the moon and a song about it. You will remember all the quiet places where your mind was yours and sometimes mine too. You will remember the flick of my hand and I will remember yours.
And from that moment on, I promise- we, would never part.
