Waiting

 

 I looked at you for so long struggling to utter my last owrds before we parted..frozen lips and tearfilled eyes were all I could express but how could I impart the pain of dying heartbeat??Incomplete memories like foggy dreams misted my thoughts.Pleading eyes tried to consider eveyrthing a bad dream.But only evil-eyed disappointment grinned in response.Teardrops like dew,rolled down,crossing the corners of my shivering lips yet I refused to turn away and hide my tears,unwilling to crush the last moments I get to see you.Instead I wiped them in the hope you hadn't noticed.I take two steps away from you,not wanting you to hear my heart tearing apart.I forget to blink because I was mesmerised by every feature of your captivating face and hoped to treasure it and prayed for your face never to fade from my eyes.Unheard prayers ! Pleadings that fell upon deaf ears !!Finally you spoke those thorny words.."LACK OF INTEREST"and turned away from me.Only voidness welcomed my rupturing heart.Dragging my weakened body,I rushed into the dark to catch a last glimpse of your heart-throbbing face .But never was my wish fulfilled.Hell spat a thunderous lightening that split us APART FOREVER and I felt the shattered crystals of my life pricking me.The sky growled and roared like nature HAD BOROWED MY FEELINGS.But I stood there motionless.Suddenly I realised I was wet.Raindrops had been dripping from my hair.Yet I did not wish to take my  TEAR-FLOODED EYES THAT BLURRED MY VISION,OFF FROM THE SPOT YOU HAD DISAPPEARED,BUT CONTINUED WAITING FOR YOU WITH BEAMING HOPE. Everyday,I stand before the mirror searching for a lost smile at my very own reflection.But even the mirror seems to have forgotten my smile.And yet I continue to live with the hope you would return and TRUST ME THOSE EYES WILL NEVER GROW TIRED OF WAITING FOR YOUR RETURN..
AND WHEN YOU RETURN, PROMISE THAT YOU WILL TEACH ME TO SMILE...PROMISE ? ?
