Hit and run

We're on the run each day,
Rising early gulping food.
We work we play
We pray for someone special in our lives.
You bumped into me.
I wondered could you be the one,
Or was it just a case of hit and run?
You walked away that day,
My body fine but in my mind
A mark you made
It's true: your image like a blue tattoo.
Did anyone witness the deed as it was done:
this crime of passion action, hit and run?
Who and where were you?
My fascination grew.
And then last Saturday
As I entered the café
I saw your face, your lips.
As if to launch a thousand ships
You smiled at me, and I could see
The day was won.
It would not be a case of hit and run.
Under skies of blue
I'm on the run with you.
We're on the run each day,
Rising early gulping food.
We work we play
We pray for someone special in our lives.
You bumped into me.
Fortunately, you were the one:
A happy outcome from this hit and run.
