Hours in the rain,
Trying to feign,
Smiles and frowns,
But could never drown, in your pain.
You ceased to be,
And I couldn't foresee,
Things happening around,
Silence was the only sound.

Should I be or not be,
I couldn't set my mind on thee,
Inconclusive was the answer,
All you wanted was to check my grammar,
I saw that smile in your eye,
It matched the purple in the sky.

No, is not the intention,
Neither is yes the solution,
Somewhere in between I hang,
Delusional is the yin and yang,
'I saw a magical creature, mom',
Yelped the kid across town.

I wish I could forge,
The look in your retinal gorge,
Simple exuberance overrode,
The bridge we forgot to erode.
You cannot just overlook,
The hardship we undertook,
In this apocalyptic,
And ever so cryptic,
This absolute reality, so majestic.

And I forget to mention who,
You!
Just you.
