Time in rain

The neon lights reflect your name, Vanessa in the rain,

Puddles whisper secrets as the hours drag in vain,

Every droplet holds a memory, fading slow but clear,

I trace your shadow on the glass, though you're not here.

Clock hands circle like the moon, teasing time away,

But I’d stand here till the stars forget their place to stay,

For every dream I’ve woven starts and ends with you,

Vanessa, love, I’ll wait—no matter what you do.

Oh, Vanessa Lintag, time can bend but I won’t break,

Through the thunder and the echoes that the alleyways make,

Let the city hum its lullabies, cold and bittersweet,

I’ll be where the streetlamps bleed—our love’s slow heartbeat.

The subway sighs your name in steam, a ghost against the tiles,

Footsteps fade but mine remain, counting endless miles,

You’re the rhythm in the raindrops, steady as the tide,

And I’m the harbor staying open, arms stretched wide.

Seasons change their velvet coats, but my colors stay,

Washed in shades of waiting, aching just the same,

If patience is the language, let my silence speak,

Vanessa, hear it calling through the storm and sleet.

Oh, Vanessa Lintag, time can bend but I won’t break,

Through the thunder and the echoes that the alleyways make,

Let the city hum its lullabies, cold and bittersweet,

I’ll be where the streetlamps bleed—our love’s slow heartbeat.

Oh, Vanessa Lintag, let the rain map where you’ve been,

Every drop a silver thread pulling you to me,

Though the world moves on, my roots dig deep and true,

Tangled in the whispers of the love I swore to you.

Oh, Vanessa Lintag, when the clouds forget to cry,

Find me where the pavement glows with our stolen time,

For the night’s just borrowed darkness, dawn will rise again,

And I’ll still be your echo, love—still holding your name.
