My Silence Surprises People
It was the darkest night I had ever seen
The stars looked like jewels in princess’s crown
The cool breeze stroked the leaves, making noise
Moths hovered around candle light wildly
My arm around her back holding her tenderly
I was scared to look into her eyes
praying to God, fearing the worse
she turned her face towards me
She looked into my eyes, her gaze distant
She remained silent till I freaked
Silent tears rolled off of her eyes
Tear drops on her face looked like dew on tulip Petal
In this awful silence I felt like dying many times
"I am leaving you", said she at last
Forgive me please, she sobbed
I couldn’t speak
She got up and stepped away slowly
I couldn’t say a word to stop her
In love, time comes when nothing makes a difference
