Raindrops fall on pavement
like the tick of a clock
I wait under our rooftop for a millennium
With tangled, damp hair
that curl with the fall of the rain.
I lift my sunken head
And there you stood
You raise your umbrella
above my head with a grin
And shield me
from the darting droplets
I returned your grin with a thankful smile
We walked silently in the quiet night
Pass wide neighborhood streets,
clear rivers, and shrines
Azure rain pour like a waterfall
And our footsteps leave reflecting ripples
My cheeks glow a rosy pink hue
Resting my eyes in the direction of your chestnut eyes
I can sense the warmth between us
Connected under our umbrella
Together at last in the maelstrom of time

I'm not the type to write love poems, but I make it subtle when I do. 

 

Two people share a moment under an umbrella in all the chaos of life.
