I found you sitting on my stair,

Tears mingling with the water

On the rain-stained sidewalk

After the storm.

I wasn’t suave

-sitting beside you like a friend

And without looking up

Or saying a word

You moved a little closer.

I didn’t ask you how you were

I didn’t really care.

I just knew that everything

That I had known

Was somehow changed

After finding you there

Sitting on my favourite stair,

Tears staining your pretty cheeks

Like rain-drops after a storm.
