"""As the sun sets across the ever
darkening sky ;
I sat waiting for her reply .
The days grew long ;
The nights grew short ;
as every passing second
was measured by the beat
of my thumping heart...
Never knew that time held torture ;
as i knew my feelings needed
a stitch and a suture ;
The falling leaves reminded me of
the good and the bad ;
that life could be as green as
the spring;
and as brown as a piece of wood ;
Never had a single word carried so much weight ..
Never had a single word carried such significance...
Never had a single word meant so much...
As night set in ;
my questions still lingered ;
I felt sorrounded ;
with no way out
I knew i could shout ;
for help;
but afraid at the same time;
not sure what she will
think about me ;
As the night went on;
the questions found a voice of their own ;
"Am i right?"
"Or was it pure hindsight?"
"Can i be wrong?"
"Or was it just the effect of a single song?"
The night grew sleepless ;
the ruffle of the leaves ;
a flicker of happiness
running through them ;
at the momentary wisp of life
that passed through them ;
Funny that they are always there ;
yet you need the wind ;
for them to rustle ;
for you to notice them ;
Should i shout;
Should i scream;
Should i cry;
Or am i a coward
if i do so;
As night walked away from dawn;
my emotions tugged at each other.
I looked out ;
as the orange rays of the rising sun;
gave birth to a new day and a new sky
As i walked to my doorstep ;
what lay there left me on a high..
fingers trembling , i picked up
her reply."""
