tumble over and left us shattered,
Time is a life line, that can't be revisited,

every moments we shared together,
patching up to make it memorable for us,
the smiles, kiss and warmth,
I thought it'll keep us together for long.

and we got drifted apart like the rush,
from water waves till it got dried up.
Empty, now feeling like a mess,
for the love I thought I could boast of.
It all fell down like a withered leaf.”
