That night she took a walk,
alone under the dark night sky.
Nothing went over her head,
only a buzz of ways to make the thing real.
She took a left path,
then she stopped and turned around.
She took another longer path on the right.
It was a long walk.
At times, she met strangers walking back,
she tried to look at them in the eye,
but strangers are strangers.
Another guy asked her what she was doing,
she nodded and smiled.
The construction was there, she almost arrived.
The place changed quite a lot since the last time she came by.
Doubts were lining up,
but the more doubts came in, the more real it became.
She finally decided.
She went to a serene corner filled with empty seats.
She sat in the third row and said goodbye.
The last time she came and kneeled down,
her uncle passed away.
That time she kneeled down again,
her father passed away.
Perhaps this time, her soul walked away.
Tears crawled down, and cries were echoing.
May the kind people be blessed.
She walked out through the empty aisle,
tried to find the gate keeper, but no one was around at that hour.
She looked for a cave,
yet it was too dark to find it.
She left the place.
She turned around and looked up to the sky.
It was enlightened, brighter than 45 minutes ago.
There were stars here and there.
The longer she stared at them,
her heart was consoled.
Her mind was cleared,
and her eyes rejoiced.
She walked back home.
An hour ended.
