In My Mind

Down falls fast the frozen rain
chills the air with my disdain
on my heart it leaves a stain
yet in my mind you remain.

I drift and fade think of you
try to bring you into view
draw a color paint a hue
fixing on what lovers do.

It’s falling fast all around
again the din and its sound
try to keep the peace I found
as it thunders to the ground.

In my mind we’re at this shore
life with you and wanting more
seagulls screeching fly and soar
mixing with the ocean’s score.

Never no never have we been
lovers as such and in between
within my mind yet barely seen
under the rain near the ravine.
