You walk in
With your idiosyncrasies
You make a decision
And you know it is right
While I waited outside
With bated breath
Two years of toil
A disoriented mind
This is all I'd wanted
And it is in your hand
The beacon of my life
A grasp and a half away
Then you tighten your fist
Decide it's not for me
Good luck for the next, you say
And the pain is all mine
Your eccentricities
Your burdened decision
My life, my dreams,
Snatched in a jiffy
It was just not your day
People say
I walk away numb
That doesn't make sense
It's an abyss of hurt
Of fear and rejection
I feel it's the end
As I lay motionless
But then the birds chirp,
I see the silver sky
I dust myself off
Brace myself for a new day
With your idiosyncrasies
You make a decision
And you know it is right
While I waited outside
With bated breath
Two years of toil
A disoriented mind
This is all I'd wanted
And it is in your hand
The beacon of my life
A grasp and a half away
Then you tighten your fist
Decide it's not for me
Good luck for the next, you say
And the pain is all mine
Your eccentricities
Your burdened decision
My life, my dreams,
Snatched in a jiffy
It was just not your day
People say
I walk away numb
That doesn't make sense
It's an abyss of hurt
Of fear and rejection
I feel it's the end
As I lay motionless
But then the birds chirp,
I see the silver sky
I dust myself off
Brace myself for a new day
