Like a walk in the rain


You took the first left
I waited near the cold-drink shop
You were unaware as always…
I was sweating in the sun of May
Suddenly you turned
That was a goose-bump moment

I don’t know what they’ll say
Crazy or weird in some way
But I have been following you from that day
The day when you walked in rain
With a silent hint of wayward pain

You’ve sat beside me in that iron bench
I still can’t figure out the emotion
Why am I so drawn to you?
Love, lust, crush?
Or is it some inexplicable?

There you are … out again
Maybe some essentials you need to buy
Why do I crazily wish…?
That you don’t easily find what you want
That’ll keep you out for some more while
I’d be watching you walk...for another mile

My friends say I chase a shadow
I say if shadow you are…
Then I wouldn’t care for a body anymore
I don’t know what this is…
It’s weird how I stutter trying to explain
I just love watching you walk
Endlessly…timelessly…forever.
