You paid so much attention to the details

How the sun shines so bright before the grey clouds embrace it.
I saw the bright sky being engulfed by darkness
You saw how the vast sunshine could not be contained by the clouds for long.
You showed me how the sun shines brighter amidst the grey.

How the rains made the summer wind humid.
I saw the puddles of mud that made my shoes and dresses dirty.
You saw how the trees turned a shade greener, a shade happier.
You made me fall in love with pertricor in the summer rains.

How sun set leaving the sky so dark.
I saw the empty benches on the deserted streets and the lifeless and looping trees.
You saw the stars in the sky, you saw the fireflies lightening up the way.
You made me realize that the beauty of the moon lies in it's scars and incompleteness.

You paid so much attention to the details

How life is unpredictable.
I saw the uncertainty of decisions, I saw the pain of reality, I saw how we are mere mortals.
You saw the grace and mercy of the end, of the death
You, you see, you failed to teach me a lesson here,
You taught me how to love the details,
You forgot to tell me how to find them.
