I Dare To Stop And Watch

In the rush and hustle bustle
I dare to stop and watch
“Just like a painting”, I declare
“Just the normal, routine, everyday affair”,
They say, and break my heart
I click a picture and start
Walking towards where others are going
Feeling strangely happy, but not showing
I’ll read the painting when alone
Savouring its rhythm and its tone
A soulful visit, now and then
Who cares for where and when?
In the rush and hustle bustle
I dare to stop and watch
