Pitch

I saw her standing there watching the birds in the midday sun. Her dress swayed lazily in the wind, she looked so beautiful.

I kicked up the pebbles by the waterside as I walked up to her, she, glancing around to see who it was. She never looked me in the eye.

As I stood beside her, we watched the sun sink lower till it touched the rooftops of the old brown, rained stained houses beside the river.

Just before the day was done, I shifted my feet and said what i'd come to say.

"You know I love you. I hope you'll see that someday. No matter what happens."

I turned and walked away as her tears fell creating ripples in the still dirty waters.
