The Road

She sat beside the road
Dull faced, unhappy smile
World looked happier except her
She broke into tears
There was no one to hear
She wept silently
A man, not rich, not handsome
Came to her, from an unknown world
From an unknown place
Watched her for hours from a distance
Came to her, closer and more
Hugged her and smiled
Her sorrows understood
Not from her words but from her eyes
Her world became more colorful
More colorful than the world
Her wishes fulfilled unasked
She looked beautiful, smiling always
Even the hot sun smiled at her
She watched her shadow
 Walking along with his
The rains held them tight
 Together under one umbrella
She did not fear the dark
He was always there for her
She never noted anybody around
It was all him
Days passed but unexpected he said
He must leave, leave her forever
She hugged him tight
She cried aloud
She held his hand and
Did not allow him to leave
But he left, without a hug
Without a word, without any promises
To an unknown world,
To an unknown place,
Again she sat beside the same road
Dull faced and an unhappy smile

The world looked happier than ever..
