If you feel me walking beside you

Why don't you stop and turn

Instead you keep on walking

Why, fazed, ignore me too?

Here I am, alone and unsure

Watching you move on ahead

As I stand in a spell, absorbed in

The minuet of my lady rain, so pure

Though I sense the smile on your face

I feel there's nothing I can do

To bring you back to the way you were

In another time, another place


Like wind chimes screaming in the storm

It was a desperation-driven chord

Although you remind me of myself

Our music has no form

But if you'd just stop to turn and listen

You'd feel the beauty in us both

How when strung as one these seperate notes

We forgot this sense of something missing

Though I see the teardrops on your face

I feel there's nothing I can do

To bring you back to the way you were

In another time, another place


Now that you stand before me

I see the first time through this mire

Your face is gentle as you look back and shiver

I realize you have never even seen

Well maybe it was me

Who was walking all along

Or maybe it just could never feel right-

It just could never be

Though I stare in wonder at your face

I feel there's nothing I can do

To bring you back to the way you were

In another time, another place

A/N: This poem blows. My first attempt at using song-style repitition in poetry. Didn't work to well.
