So close

I saw you on the street
in the cities lights
you were so pretty
I followed you
couldn't reach you
lost in the crowd
wind was blowing
swirled you around
I was in love
the moment I saw you
you floated like a butterfly
on a hot sunny day
how I needed you
I was so thirsty
somebody else took you
gone forever
my mouth was dry
don't worry
I'll find another buck

About this poem:

oh the days of our youth still in school. you see a dollar bill floating around and somebody else takes it before you can.there goes that cocacola you wanted to bad.

It is beautiful really like this..was picturing myself following some girl through a market and trying to catch up to her..like the way you disguised it.
