In the middle of an afternoon rain
I take my silent walk to nowhere
Treading with care on the wet lanes
Avoiding puddles here and there
Children run around dancing on the way
Splashing water, playing with each other
They laugh and smile invitingly as I lay
Waiting, standing cold under a shelter
Wrapped in each others' arms, young lovers
Ignite their passion in the falling rain
They pass by leaving me to remember
All my past lovers and their love in vain
‘Life is for the young and the restless’
A deep sigh, then I walk on nonetheless
