He was in love with the idea of love
He would see her everyday at the school but never could once have courage to tell her what he feels
When evening after the school he saw her standing with a group of friends
Not knowing how to say, he wrote his feelings for her on a dry leaf and asked a kid to give it to her.
The kid did and she read it and looked for him everywhere but couldn’t find him
Then she saw him, he was looking at her from a distance. From the corner of his eye as he kept coming closer and closer.
She gave him his leaf back and left without saying a word. He was heartbroken.
Tears started rolling in . He threw the leaf away
Then something stopped him. He picked the leaf again and turned it and there was her message.
They met where the tides were high.
There were no men
You write so well she said
He couldn’t say. Didn’t look away
She looked for truth in his eyes
He was in pain she knew. He had only written her name in his eyes
Scared she looked away. So much of love she thought. Ooh god why do you play?
She turned to leave in pain
His hand in hers made her stop
I leave tomorrow. I don’t belong here, she said.
