The funeral of love!

On a rainy evening she stands alone at the graveyard,
Stares at the coffin and slowly kneels down
The rain is her only companion she realizes
Cuz when she looks up, there is no one around.

She is dressed in black and looks pretty,
Even as the streams of tears accompany the rain drops down her cheeks
Then she suddenly notices the withering flowers on the coffin,
And it hits her, that she has been mourning for weeks.

Flashes of memories good bad and ugly,
Start attacking her disillusional mind,
And she asks herself whether she went too ahead,
Or whether she got left far behind.

In this moment, she wishes he was by her side,
Keeping his promise, of being with her through this madness of a ride.

She stares with blurry eyes at the black box,
Which is being lowered into the ground,
But her gaze starts to wander,
Hoping and praying that he is somewhere around.

Alas! She is but alone at this funeral,
Weeping with mourning gods of rain,
Letting them wash away all the grief,
And brace her in this moment of unbearable pain.

It's time for her to let go,
And she hesitates to say the final goodbye,
She can't do it, she runs away,
Screaming aloud -' how how how could I let the want for love die!!'
