Chapter 1: Meeting in Rome

An ordinary Sunday,
If I remember right
You were sitting in the corner
When I first saw you, that night

You were writing
I was smiling

At you, unnoticed,
Until you noticed
Felt embarrassed,
like a love novice

You felt like home,
Even though I didn’t know,
Who you were and
Where you came from

A few months later,
A night in November,

Club lights in the cloud,
I was about to leave,
Before I stopped to breathe,
It was you, without a doubt

This time,
Right in the middle, as the night
Little by little, by and by
We got closer by each flash of light

Echoes of sound
A sound energy
Between you and me

This is our journey,
This is our dance
November 28,
We take this chance

All alone,
Before we met in Rome
