The winds blow strong

Like a storm, passing by

Quickly, taking all in its path

Leaves on the trees, rustling

A low pitch whistle, their cry

Of forceful air, as they gather

In a swirling dance, rhythmic

Sending them spiraling

Into places unknown

Much like the night

After the rumbling thunder

Has long been forgotten…

Let’s sail off into the sunset

Soaking in the blinding light

Of our golden orb, dipping down

Beneath the waters, where we could

Simply float away, on a wave of dreams

Yes, let’s close our eyes now, make it come true

Live this fantasy, as if it is our little secret

Hidden, in the deep blue sea

I sit, watching, as they go about their day

Never looking up to see the world, nose glued

To whatever electronic device they happen to have

A woman trips, but picks up her pace,

Even more hurried, two others sit, chatting,

Seemingly unaware they are not alone

The din of an otherwise empty coffee shop

Is music to my thoughts, and as the hours pass,

I realize, I am just like them

I want to draw you

Memorize the contours of your face

Sketch the intricate lines of your eyes

Your nose, your mouth, that jawline

That draws me in, every time I’m near you

I want to erase the worry,

And replace the doubt

With the delicate strokes of my hands

You were a temporary thought, I think

The kind that blows in with the breeze

And departs just as quickly

Enough to ruffle my mind

Like the shaking of the leaves

As they quake in the morning air

It makes me drift away with them

Perchance, to catch that one balloon

Released, before it was ever caught
