The Dreamer and The Drifter
one winter day he drifted into the Dreamers silent eyes
his smile so quick & quirky it took her by surprise…
time passed in coffee-scented sunsets shared
where they revealed stories of their pasts
- the Dreamer dreamt, as the friendship grew stronger
that each sunset would last… a just little longer…
The Drifter gazed at the Dreamer with a depth that showed hidden thoughts
he looked into her, like she held the answers to all his secret dreams…
and the Dreamer smiled back at him with open love and peace
wondering…. just wondering… where this path would lead…
souls were bared between the two, their spirits cried honest tears
as seasons flowed they shared whispered visions that spoke of both their fears…
confessions from the long ago… and daydreams of the future
- for a while there they even envisaged what life would be like together…
tender caress’s fed her soul… they lingered at each kiss goodnight
… but she knew he could not pledge himself…. and could not change his life…
… one winter day he drifted into her silent eyes
his smile so quick & quirky it took her by surprise…
but the Drifter, he was a drifter… and the Dreamer a dreamer of dreams
and one Winter day, a year later, when the setting sun was almost gone
the Drifter kissed the Dreamer…
and moved on;
