UNTITLED #15
Walking through the alleyway
Trying to keep myself dry
The rain is pouring harder now
But it will soon pass me by
The creature comforts I once knew
Mean so little to me now
Looking at the people in the restaurants
Is enough to make me smile
I can’t help but stop and stare
At the people driving by
In hopes that one of them is you
They’re not, but it’s worth a try
“Excuse me,” I say to a man
Who pushes me aside
He says something I don’t hear
Cos something has caught my eye
There you are
A sight for my lonely eyes
I run up to you, arms outstretched
As you start to cry
It’s been too long, we both know
Without having to speak
You feel like you belong in my arms
And I can barely stand on my feet
We hold each other forever
But it could never be long enough
I promise you this is the last time
We will ever be apart
The tears are flowing freely
As you smile at me
“No more talking,” you say
And that’s more than enough for me
