She kept pining for him.
The dweller of her heart.
He’d promised her the moon
Under the twinkling stars
Told her he’d be back soon.
She kept pining for him.
Kept watching at the door,
Eyes searching for a glimpse.
Listened for his footsteps,
With his name on her lips.
She kept pining for him.
Waiting, when she would wear
His arms as her necklace.
And sway all through the night
Lost in his tight embrace.
She kept pining for him.
Knowing they’d never meet.
They were star-crossed lovers
Who against all odds still,
Believed in fate’s wonders.
