...and he sat alone. All he could think of was the last Question she asked.
" How could you do that?"
The Question, that changed his life. The Question, he had no answer for. The Question...
Tears rolled down his eyes when he looked at the crystal ring in his hand. The Token of his eternal love for her, which had always shined on her finger testifying that she belonged to him.

She no more had the ring. She no more wanted him. She no more belonged to him.

With blurry images in his mind, he recalled the beautiful days he spent with her.
" How could I do that?"... "How could I let lust take over me?"... "How could I betray the woman of my dreams?"... "How could I let one night change my destiny?"... "How could I... ?"

He sat there, in the dark, motionless, thinking about himself without her. With her sweet memories on his mind, he took the last sip of the slow poison... He refilled his Glass, which now was his only company for life...

Memories play a very strange game
In a moment you are sad, the next, they make you happy again
Why do tears fall when I know of the smiles ahead?
Why do I still cry thinking of the happiness ahead?

I wish I could have showed how much I cared
I wish a few moments, more you could have spared
May be it’s the distance, may be it’s your love for me
But today I realize you have changed my destiny.

The ice-creams we had and the coffees we shared
The late night talks about all that we cared
The so-very-long drives that never seemed to end
Come back soon, I want to live it all again

Never was I aware that I’ll miss all those times
Never did I know that I’ll crave for you all times
I wake up each day with a big broad smile
Coz with each passing night you are closer by a mile…
