One night

There was a night long before the ones which followed it, as it were to be the one to never forget. This on night began while the sun was still setting and the sky wandered about all the colors yet to be seen. On pavement, I looked up with closed eyes to feel the soft drops of rain. People scurried all over the place as they were ants looking to run along their work and lives. I stood alone in a crowd. My opened to see far across blaring horns of speeding cars. She was there dressed in black. Long hair, dark eyes with a smile. My mouth goes dry in wanting to speak. Closer and closer we come to another. Time slows down to a crawl everywhere at once as if it were just for us. Then it happens, we embrace like lost lovers over time. As we let go for a moment to talk, I wake up in my bed strangely missing the feeling of home in that embrace. I remember it sometimes before I sleep, only in parts, hoping it would be real someday.
