Tell me
when did the breeze begin to whisper your name
and when did the water begin to pool in your collarbones
when did the night long to be touched by your fingertips
and when did my eyes become blind to everyone but you

Tell me
why does my heart swell when words escape your lips
and why do the blossoming trees reach towards your palms
why does tomorrow open its doors to you with so much vigour
and why do I want to follow after you
