PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

There were days when the sky would turn a darker shade

And you would wait and clutch your heart

Because you wanted the tears to come but they would not

And we were so certain that the sun would lie buried

Beneath the storm cloud forever amen

And the days would take so long to end because

There was nothing to do and even less to say

And it wasn't boredom because you just didn’t care

Anymore

There were no friends and little comfort besides

The ticking of the clock and the glare of a screen

And you were so certain that it would remain the same

For a lifetime because happiness lies in the strangest

Of places and all that remains is what hasn’t been

And we cannot know for sure what we haven’t seen



So perhaps the sun will come

                             and maybe it will be lost forever

But all the can be done

                          is the waiting to see it again
