Sometime in the future
Exactly when I am not sure
I would like to come back to you
One last time.
Not in a dramatic way
I hope you understand
Nor to frighten or upset you.
I promise to choose something
Small and insignificant,
A single drop of rain perhaps.
I will settle on your cheek
But only for a moment - that is all
Before you mistake me for a tear
And brush me away for ever.
