First date

Walking in the early morning,
The clouds are gathering in the sky,
Light morning rain begin before I see you,
I try to predict the coming day.

My heart is in a strange way at ease,
My mind is in high alert,
I'm sweating in the cold morning,
Soon I feel the nervous state I'm in.

I'm walking the unknown streets,
I don't feel the rain and each drop make me wet,
It is maybe time for breakfast at seven?
I'm rushing to the hotel room for a dry blouse.

Starting with lots of Coffee,
I'm not in shape without a pot,
The black fluid calms me down,
I can think again, maybe.

The Emotions is running as a sub stream,
Underneath the feelings and the thoughts,
My blood is like Champagne, bubbling,
Making small explosions in my brain.

"Do you need something else than Coffee?"
A kind voice sounds in my ears,
I have to eat something before you come,
Even I don't know the day yet.

I'm suddenly five years old,
My milk glass is shaking,
Milk all over the table and myself,
I'm reaching for a pile of napkins.

I'm calming down againg,
It is only milk, I'm hearing fathers voice,
Relax my boy no harm done,
He is not here and yet I hear him?

My arm watch is slowly ticking,
It is with brutal ease getting 10:00,
It is arrival time for you?
Maybe you have given up,
Abandon me here today.

Out in the light morning rain again,
Still scouting for you,
Oh there you are,

A Glimpse of hope is lid in me,
Sliding through unknown countryside,
Blending in the landscape,
Places with the same grace as you.

You were sending nice fragrance in my nostrils,
Awaken forgotten feelings inside me,
You made me feel nicer than I am,
You made me longing to stay forever.
