I stand still for you.

[genegenethedm]

Easy streets lying for busy feet,
while crisp breezes carry the autumn season.
I stand still, saturated in lazy daylight.
I stand still, engrossed in movement.

Crowded commotion rushes around me,
in slow curvy competitive rows.
I stand still, for a friendly rendezvous.
I stand still, waiting for you.

Spending nothing more than a second,
looking up to see you coming near.
I stand still, leaning under the sky
I stand still, chasing your eyes.

Locked in a short embrace,
casting away the rest of the world
I stand still, your cheek to shoulder.
I stand still, for a moment.

I stand still, I can only remember you.
