I looked into her eyes and Bhaktapur stood still,
Speak up said the voice from the inside,
'hold it right there'- said my mind
Words came to my throat and my tongue froze
I needed to throw it all out
"coward"- the word echoed around my ears, daunting the already dumbstruck I,
"I love you"- the words finally broke the gates of silence but she had moved on
Treading aimlessly on the streets, switching lanes and running in circles again
