A Witness

He tried to pour—

his heart out to her

With his voice that

was clacking.

Carefully looking—

in his eye, she said:

"I know well, I know

how you feel but...

But I don't think—

it is time, let us wait

Wait for the truth of

me and you."

"Maybe you don't

have an idea how—

bad it aches to feel

like this." He said.

"I know, my friend

But to be honest, I—

I've no such feelings

for you." She said.

"I love you, don't—

forget that, and...

I won't forget it too."

He said, and he left.

I was there, the day

He fret and tried to

weep, but he didn't;

I was the man.
