Intersection

The words kept echoing in her mind
Like  lightning in a stormy night 
Her Heart forgot its rhythmic schemes 
Missed several beats
A baffled smile came first 
Then a rainbow burst with all its colors on her face

How long did she wait
For those three magical words to be said! 
And there____ they were spoken

Her eyes closed, 
His eyes fixed on her, 
He asked___ don’t you
She raised her head, but couldn’t answer, 
Between the eyes and him
A couple of tears beclouded the scene

Wiping the water from her face
He asked____why___with grace
She replied while turning her sight
towards the swaying Silken Tent___white
I am sorry____ I couldn’t get to you,
I got to honor my pleages ,
I don’t belong here___you do

Far above, the sky roared with its full might 
She could see the swift clouds running from the horizon
To the zenith’s points, making a Dom of dark Clouds
Enclosing the earth like a body in grave…

He stood there___firm
She left
But her heart……
