Something To Write About

There you are again Your image Reminiscent of unclear memories Evoking a soft fluttering in my heart And I don’t know why I’ll never know why I raise my head from daydream I see your silhouette Dancing beside the diminishing sunlight Resplendent in form It reads surety and familiarity But still an enigma Uncharted territory That I have yet To tread upon What to do with the unexpected I swore I’d never see you again But you appeared A shock to the system And I’m involuntarily shaking And I wish I knew what to do Timing is everything And I’m counting the seconds Contemplating what they’ll bring And it’s your shadow Reflecting off tinted glass And I’m caught off guard As your smile emerges From the glare of the dying sun I have to catch my breath As your figure breaks through The smoky haze of my conscience It’s like seeing a ghost the object of my affection Jumping out of a dream And entering my surreal existence And I don’t make sense But neither do you So where do we go from here? Or do we? Why is it you torment me? Among so many people And you pick me from the crowd Your arms are comfort incarnate As they engulf me In an overpowering embrace And you hold me forever But it’s not long enough And I don’t know what You want with me You are a mystery As splendid as the pyramids As vast as space As timeless as Love And flowing like the ocean I hope some day Those waves will come crashing down And sweep me away To be carried off with the tide But for now You’re my something to write about
