Someday

Someday
I'll sit with you on a bench
And we'll talk
About spontaneous things
Books, art, God...
Anything at all.
Good friends and students of life.

But not today.
Today you will go about life
And so will I
We'll catch up, one day.

Someday
I see you with a lover
I see me with mine.
Happy as can be
Life is complete.
Fin. The End. Done.
Or so we think

But not today.
I'm still alone
I like it like that, personally.
Not sure about you, though.

Someday
I'll be living in an apartment
And you'll come over
Like blossoms, magic takes place
It will happen so slowly
Until we sit together listening to rain.
We have settled to a storm.

But not today.
We're in a drought
I still live at home
You won't come over.

Someday
We'll finally forget the world
Walking hand in hand
Traveling the world and revisiting that bench
All the while still falling.
Paris, Beijing, London...

But not today.
We don't have that kind of time
Or even that kind of opportunity
Where would we go?

Someday
We will realize we have dreams
And our paths will fork out
Chasing them comes first
Our tickets in hand.
We must part.

But not today.
Yes, we have dreams,
Yes, we're chasing them,
Whether our paths diverge is unknown.

Someday
I will run after your train
You'll be hanging out the window
Before you pull out, we kiss.
Our tears converge, our hands part.
I'll miss you.

But not today.
Trains don't run too much here
I still don't know your taste
All I know is your smile.

Someday
I will finally have courage
I've known you for so long,
Our first talk and my ignorance
To the beautiful person you are.
I will tell you everything.

But not today
We are strangers still
With a history of friendship.
And I'm still not brave enough.

Someday
I'll tell you "I Love You".

But not today.
