The Book 2

She turned to her wristwatch but to her dismay Stuck on "6:59" perhaps time shall not be exposed! She thought she was walking in the middle of the night In that old street with an old streetlight While everyone is asleep and at peace Dreaming or snoring so deep And cheers to her companion--- the cold breeze!
