Waiting For You

A girl's vision while waiting for her love.

My hair sways in the wind.

Time passes on.

My eyes stray to a puddle .

It shows a happy young woman as I look on.

As i look on my mind remembers our first moments.

My heart started to race,

my lips curled into a smile at your joke.

Then in the blink of an eye,

the setting changed.

We both are old,

Our youthfulness gone but our love has not.

As i lie on my deathbed,

my kith and kin scattered across,

wailing and tearing.

Yet there is only one face i long for,

before I give in to eternal slumber.

My eyes give way slowly losing focus.

My heart skips a beat as i come out of my daydream.

Eyes tearing I look on ,

the puddle becomes clear of ripples reflecting a new image.

A young man full of life and love smiles back.

The familiar feeling of love enthralls me as i run,

enveloping myself in your arms.

 Forgetting the future,

forgetting the past ,

because the present is on.
