/ˈtravəstē/

that day,
she hold her watch so tight
kept questioning herself
not sure if she wanted to reset it

it seemed to tick slower
it seemed to tick faster

she knew
this day would come

but no one thought
it was gonna be this day

in silence
she peeled every damn layers
unveiled the warmth
for every single scratches

the audacity of confidence
the spark of the flakes of gold
the laughter, softer than a silk
the soul spark brightly brighter than a sun
the closeness of the colliding worlds

it intensified

she was convinced

it was colliding

an awakening of the angst
the most durable angst
they kept for years

the clock stopped ticking
for no one knows how long
days?
months?
years?
forever?

nothing.
it just stopped
just like that

ever since that day
sky tinted the faint hearts blue
as blue as the color of sky that day
as the sun went down

if that was it,
then why does she still have that faith?
then why does she still need reassurance?
then why is she still in love with the sharpest mind?

-

she sits in the corner

still waiting the clock to tick again
still holding on
still holding...on

she is still h o l d i n g  o n...

hoping it'd tick again..

would you make it tick again?
