I was lost,
when I found you.
my searching eyes
met your silent form
when you appeared
from between winding
streets and towering houses.
i had to stay. longer.
looking at you, unabashed.
taking in every detail,
every ray of light that touched you,
passed my eyes, absorbed.
I couldn’t move away,
now that I knew you.
and where I’d find you.
you’re not an image in my head
you’re the canvas on which
everything will be painted upon.
we don’t belong to anyone or anywhere
we just passed one another,
and stalled passing by.
an unending sojourn.
stay longer.
