For Natalie

The rain falls down my window
Outside the wind blows
I watch the droplets puddle
On the pane

In the street I see papers
Yesterdays news and
A packet of cigarettes
That have all been smoked

The silence waits
With baited breath
Awaiting another voice
With hands together
We walk along
And I see you smile again

Beyond the flowers
Beyond the hills
Beyond an imagination
We are together
Always

I hold you close
And whisper your name
And kiss you gently
