Rains and Sandstorms

 
 
And life passes by through rains and sandstorms
She looks away from the brightness of the grey skies
As it rains, she wipes the sweat trickling next to her eyes
Creams the little red sunburnt patch on her nose
And tries to catch the hail as a hot gush of wind blows
Cosies up in a shrug as her skin burns with the heat
A cold cup of coffee in hand and a warm heart longing to meet
 
But life passes slowly through the rains and the sandstorms
The scorching heat makes the hair on his hand stand
He shrinks his eyes in a failing attempt to avoid the white sand
A light coloured shirt serves as a perfect camouflage in the snow
The immense sweat from a long run cooling to fast to know
Stands by the motionless lake as the cold wind ruffles his hair
An ale gone warm in the thought that ‘a choice it is’ - yet not fair
