An Old Interest

It just so happens its raining today.
Sometimes the weather reflects my mood.  
I try and fill my mind with good thoughts...
And all of them drift towards you.
Oh, how I long for a sweet day when I'll be able to feel your hands in mine.
And how I wish for a time when we will be alone.
Just as an ocean, has a swift, strong current, so does my pulse have a steady beat for you.
And as the sun of golden color shines upon the open African plains, so does your smile when it meets my view.
But it's different.
No grand scenery or wonder will ever compare to my love for you. 
You make me realize that not everything is complicated.
You show me that a simple walk with you to work, can make a red day go green.
And if it was this simple all the time, and if the mysteries didn't make us wonder...
I would still ask why you keep a smile on your face, even as the sky thunders.
