North Campus Yesterday

"I'll have my tea with two drops of rain"...

I've been to these places before,
when the weather and people were sticky and never dull.

These corridors filled with promises of a fantastic love
and life that we'd share.

Instead ending after the first night on a dirty hostel room bed
sharing only cheap rum and our bodies.

The people are no longer the same, but the faces
still betray secrets from last night.

A smirk, a touch, a seemingly profound pick up line
"I've been here before on a rainy day".
