The silent moon looms over as sunlight fades
darkness falls as the day nears its end.

Shadows abound, stars begin to appear
I lie away, drowned in thoughts of mystery.

I feel pain 'cause I haven't heard from you
wondering where you are, and who you're with.

I try to free myself from thoughts of distrust
yet it comes creeping back, pitch black as night.

For events of past leads me to today
forever wondering if I could keep faith.

Loneliness surrounds me as the wind blows
with thoughts I couldn't bear to hold.

Each second feels like a year
forever waiting for you to come home to me.

Clouds start to gather on this night of sorrow
as I lie waiting like holding a candle amidst the wind.

Agony reaches its peak, rain starts to fall,
further giving me pain as I never imagined.

With tears running down, I shouted in silence
thunder rumbles, lightning splits the sky.

"I love you," someone softly says to me
amidst the confusion, madness, chaos and anger.

I looked around, wondering where the voice came from,
only to realize it was my heart, trying to comfort me.

I started to understand as the rain continued to fall
that it was my love for her putting me to the test.

Nothing else mattered as long as I loved her
jealousy nor distance can ever make us part ways.

As rain fell its last drop, the clouds move away
bringing back the moon and stars which shone much brighter than before.

I laid back again, started to smile,
but had another thought which made me wonder again

Does she feel the same, I don't know
only time will ever tell, as we grow closer together.

Yet she doesn't know what I truly feel for her
only that I hope my feelings will not end in vain.

 

another poem back from my college days that i wanted to share with everyone.  πŸ™‚
