"Lay under the night sky
Stared at the stars in sorrow
Wondered all along why
The archer had fired the arrow…
A serendipitous meeting years ago
Beady little eyes and a saccharine smile
As graceful as a cygnet
That day I will never forget…
The memories flooded my head
A deluge never felt before
This I could take no more
The pain left me dead….
Secluded I was in the dark
She had made her mark
In a way so stark
She bid a befitting but late goodbye….
