The Unfinished Chapter - 86

Chapter 86

From a day ago, to a day from now

From a week ago, to a week from now

From a month ago, to a month from now

From a year ago, to a year from now

From a lifetime ago, to a lifetime from now

The transient seductions of fallacy distract

She wipes away her tears, just as more follow

In this dance from then to now, now to then 

It's his presence she feels, his face she sees

And then she wonders, would he leave her again?

Just like he did from then to now?

Oh darling, how much she missed him

She closed her eyes, felt that familiar abyss overtake her very being

Falling, falling, jagged rocks slashing her along the way

She felt nothing

Pain metamorphosed itself into feeling

Feeling, but, she was numb, how could she feel?

But she did, she still felt for him

She still loved him, missed him

When it came to loving him, all the strength of the world couldn't keep her away

When it came to leaving him, the will of the world could do all but move her

She loves him, still

She misses him, still...

The Unfinished Chapter - 89

Chapter 89

She tries calling out to him, she can't

Her voice is lost in the dreariness of everyday life

She was soft, but, love she believed would carry her call through

Tears welled-up in her almond-shaped eyes

She ceased calling, he couldn't or wouldn't hear her

She waited for a while as the crowds and noise engulfed her

Everything has an overpowering effect now

She slowly turned to leave

She left, just as quietly as she had come

Her love, her dreams, trying so hard to find a place in this heartless world

Sweet nothings, kisses, hugs, holding hands
These are her life, a life through love 

She was looking for him, hoping that he was looking for her too
 The wait is a long one as tears streams flow when her patience runs thin
For now, she is kissed with her own tears

But she'll look for her soulmate anyway
She knows she will find him
And when she does, she will hold on to him

Even if all she would do was break down and cry in his arms

The Unfinished Chapter - 92

Chapter 92

She lived her life in love

She still lives her life in love

Her feelings were, are, and forever will be true

She thought that was enough

Was it, though?

She stands at the end of a lonely road

Is it the end or the beginning?

She knew not, she cared not

She wasn't here

She was consumed by the bottomless vacuum that refused to abate

Dreary clouds part ways in the sky above

Brightness caused by sudden lightening

Thunder roared like it was a lover spurned

Like it cried as it stood and watched tiny, scattered pieces of a broken heart

It poured thundershowers like never before

Like the sky was sobbing for its lover it missed so dearly

A lover that was its life with whom it had none

The sky was lonely, the sky was nothing, no one

So, who is the sky then?

Like the sky, is she destined to look far, far into the horizon
Rejoice at the meeting of the sky and earth in that distance?

She gasped for breath, fought back a tear, closed her eyes

Just closed her eyes

This was going to be a dreamless sleep

She'd rather not dream, than have those very dream paint pictures, only to betray her
