Just the Two of Us

By

Nicholas Ayoola Oladehin

We started the day alone

waking up from different beds

We started the day alone

travelling out on different routes

We started the day alone

having lunch at different times

We started the day alone

searching through our worried minds

We started the day alone

making friends with the tall Big Ben

We started the day alone

watching as the hours go bye

We started the day alone

relying on our mobile phones

We started the day alone

yearning, longing and hoping

We started the day alone

but the night was full of smiles

We started the day alone

and we kissed as we said goodnight
