Always with me, Always with you

And I turn my back again
At the things I had back then
I walk, I talk, I kiss and caress
I think, I sink, and randomly obsess

Why you? why me?
Why now? not then?
Why not the days back when
white was white and black was black?

I sink
deep into myself
into feelings i never knew i was capable of having
and i realize
there are a lot more things i am suddenly craving

I sink
as i watch the sun dip itself into Cairo
as i listen to this bohemian city call for prayers
i take a sip of water
and nothing in the world feels better than this.

I am myself

Dear Cairo,
You should know by now that my love for you is inevitable, so please don't abuse it any further.


Song:
Joe Satriani - Always With Me, Always With You

The Air of Cairo

It's exceptional
How the wind blows through your hair
That I could only pause and stare

It may be Sceptical
How the wind always blows in the right place
Showing hidden brightness on your face

It's like it carries around your heavenly scent everywhere i go
It's like it passes through imaginary meadows into icy snow
It's like it guides the stream of the river telling it where to flow
It's like it teases all the flowers making them stand in woe
It's the breeze that flows through you into the air of Cairo

We walk, or perhaps we run
Into a life, one that makes us one
A journey with an everglowing sun

Raise your head, smell, or rather taste the breeze
Lay down next to me and let time freeze
Let the wind blow mellow music into our ears

 

 

Here's your song for today:

Aqualung - Strange and Beautiful
