Heartbreak

There she stood

By the wooden window

Staring into the dark

Hiding

Not from the world

But from the one she loved

There she stood

Aware of the heartache

Blooming in the heart

Of the one

By whom she was searched

Yet she hid

Behind the floral curtains

As she stared in the dark

She wished to see him

But not to be found



She knew his pain and agony

As her was the same

Yet she hid

Wishing to catch a glimpse

To soothe her heart

And not his

Though for years

They had been the same.
