Stay

I remember

It was Monday,

the last day of May

I called you up to meet

You came despite the summer heat

I wanted to confess

and you were waiting for me to express

I was nervous to show

and you were curious to know

I hesitantly asked you ‘Will you marry me?’

but you outrightly rejected my plea

The moment you said no,

my heart started racing slow

You broke all my dreams,

couldn’t hear my silent screams

There was so much to say

but you walked away

I wish you could stay
