=In Passing=

In passing I met you strangely
as you just entered and I left
as a wanderer searching for you
In passing I found you
and you were fascinating
and devastatingly beautiful
In passing I fell in love again
with you my life began anew
with the frenzy of a thunderstorm
In passing I wrote blindly
to you so far away from me
to draw you closer like a ghost
In passing I dreamt madly
of you sweetly in the darkness
of the night kissing me silently
In passing I told you my feelings
for you were there as I waited
for something to happen to me
In passing I glimpsed the joy
in you I might find new faith
in this meaningless life we have
In passing I was so so sad
but you were there my friend
but I knew I could never stay
In passing I came to rest
where you will never find
where clouds drift lazily by
In passing.

Happy Birthday, in passing
