Good time



In a windless winter
crystal snowflakes were
falling from the sky-

They were falling,
falling all around me,
my neck, my head,
on my wet eyes-

With the stalled wind, there was
no illusion in the mind
as I could feel all my pain-

However, I thought I could find a
piece of summer heat wave
within your heart-

But, as you did, whatever your
heart desired and
all of them are currently
sudden fractions -

Now, everything is falling apart
nothing is though new
but happening almost
every now and then-

Hence, I thought, I will wait here
for a while, if not
for a lifetime-
And, desiring that those good time
somehow will
come back again.

(Note: Based on a true story).
