Empty Kleenex Box

One girl
One summer
One week
One night
One moment
One heart broken
Countless tears cried

A look from across the room
A connection made
An attraction increasing
An hour apart lasts forever
A night together lasts a moment

Feelings shared, trust earned
Tears flow, embraces comfort
Even the darkest of nights
Smiles against crashing waves

A week's worth of afternoons
A journey along the sea
A trip across the country
A plane ride far from home

Weeks of waiting
A moment of truth
The realization of love lost
And a heart now broken
But a girl full of tears
Now a woman waiting
for another time
another love
