SPRING AWAKENINGS
- a poem of New York City -

Eight A.M. and it's raining
I'm still in my apartment
Drinking coffee in my pajamas

My hair's a mess
My face's naked
My feet are bare
And I have to be --
at the office in an hour

I have a meeting with a client at nine
I have a business lunch over at Club 21 at noon
I have an appointment with my hairdresser at six
I also have a first dinner date
with the cute guy next door at eight

Everything is perfect
Everything -
is not

'Cause you're not here
So everything good
fades -
into the background

Everything that we might have said
Everything that we might have done
stopped -
here
At the end of the season
Where the last snow flake
Melts into a drop of water

While Love
will always be -
the
one
word
Never said between us

But life is moving forward
I need to catch up

After all,
You were the one
who wasn't willing enough to stay
And I was the one
who wasn't patient enough to wait

Eight A.M. and it's raining
with it -
New York and I welcome the spring
