And Then

I’m setting off past through the close
Towards the light of day
Move up and down, back and forth
Without a word to say
Call me abruptly just in time
I shall return as soon as
More clouds will enclose the sky
More silence heave the corners 
And then you enter with a smile
The clock stroke twelve, and then..
What's happened then to you and I?
Remind me if you can.
