A SATURDAY

entry picture

I am brimming with happiness today,

Partially because he touched me,

He touched my arms, my hair, the nape of my neck,

He bit my cheeks,

I know

That's probably why I can't stop smiling .

 

Partly also, it's because it's raining,

I hear the rain,

I hear as it falls,

I hear as it hits my gable roof,

The sound it makes as it hits the tiles ,

Echoes in my heart,

It brews feelings unknown,

Feelings I know not by name,

Only that they bring me happiness ,

Only that my heart rhymes with the beat of the patters,

Only that he's holding my hands beneath the covers .

 

I can trace his smile with my lips ,

I can taste the rain waters in my mouth,

Oh, what a divine feeling!

Oh, what a Saturday!

A Saturday not of the books,

But one, only my heart knows.
