The windows were all foggy
From the cold winter night

The tree leaves were drenched
The chirping of the birds died

The flowers refused to bloom
The wind signaled the storm

And I sat there waiting quietly
Adoring the beauty in simplicity

It's been almost seventeen years
My patience faded away like tears

My door mat welcomed strangers
They never ever stayed long there

Quick as lightening I packed away
The unnecessary souvenirs

As I held the key to the locked box
I whispered

"You will be far more safer in here"
