As Time Ticks Away

707

as the moonlight lit up the dark night
i watched in awe, lost in a world
that you seem to have taken me to,
i stood there open-mouthed;

thinking the life that has eluded me
for so long, is finally in my hands,
i let loose myself
to be with you;

i took off my mask,
changed into a man
that i only dreamt of,
looking to start something new;

going back to the place
somewhere only we know,
taking the pieces of dreams
that is now, our life;

as i begin to rearrange the
broken pieces spread on the floor,
looking into the eyes, we say the
words again and melt away
into the darkness;

as time ticks away and
tomorrow seems far away,
never thought i need a reason
maybe i don’t need a reason
to fall in love with you;
