Eighteen Days
For Li Zi Shi
Two steps in the rain,
Two step just the same
As the two steps yesterday
That were two steps in the sun.
It is the same rain
And the same sun
In your world and mine
The same love
and the same pain,
smiling and crying
in the same moment in time,
heart full of love and anticipation
hours,
weeks,
months,
of waiting,
separated by twenty hours
and an airplane.
A few hours until
My day ends
The same few hours until
Your day begins.
Eighteen days
Until we love again.
Paul Li Campise
