I couldn't hear your footsteps as you walked past me,
Nor the sounds of the exuberant children nearby
And the laughter that followed after.
Only did the increasing volume of my heart speed its way into my ears
And the continuous battering of my eyelids,
Reassuring myself you were really there.
Fast as my heartbeats did time appear to brake
With an exemption of the sudden movements of the sunlight on your face
For vast shadows did evaporate
When you were not too distant anymore.
And as I stood there while your presence vanished past me,
While the merry children kept their smiles wide awake
Mine had gone away as well,
Unable to hear the faint echo of your footsteps
Tracing a line I could not follow.
