In The Heat

In The Heat

1 min
328


I entered with no hopes to find a friend

I saw you and my smile knew no end

That one test and one cheated answer

Set out a test against our connection against reality


Just as our days begin

I already looked ahead at the day when it would end.

In the heat, we met and carried heart on our sleeves

Gradually as our days went by, I longed to stay back in past


Amidst the crowds, I would look out for you when people took breaks,

But I knew you would be my home there

Shared music, bought ice creams, rented washrooms

In the heat, we had done it all,

Not once but every day, out of practice


As our last day approached, I knew, I knew it all

The cracks in our sentences

The glum on our faces

The marks on our favourite places


The more you walk away to leave,

Your fingers slip and my heart gets numb

Now the distance is not in miles

But in the failed attempts to meet on time.
