Chapter 5 - Chalk talk

First month of class-June came

I started my journey with an aim

To be the best, to mark my name

But I know that my life wouldn't be the same

You walked in front with a book at hand

With exceptional smile and an entrance so grand

Your voice enticing, gentle and calm

With a hint of cleverness like those words at psalm

Second month and July arrived

I walked with poise like a bride

As the man stared with prying eyes

But with gentle look, soothing and nice

Third month-August came

Free time and the start of games

But how I wish to be in a regular class

Or to capture the very essence of you and encase it with glass

Fourth month- September

Moments of my full surrender

When I realized that you already owned my heart

I don't want us to part

Fifth month- October arrived

Busy days, time to step up the pride

No time to cry, no time to falter

But everyday without you, I become sicker

First half was finished, five months had passed

But the love spell wasn't lifted, it was a continuous cast

And I was blinded by the past

Afraid to give my trust

November-start of the second half

I distanced myself but how long can I last

If in everyday I wake up, in everything I see

It reminds me of every moment cherished with you in full glee

December-second month of the new start

End of the year, time to fill the cart

Everyday is merry, happy, but I'm sad

My heart is gloomy still, far from glad

January-start of a new year

My mind was set, time to look for new peers

But I can't help but to glance and stir

You still own my heart, you are still my dear

February-month of love

But I'm a free flying dove

No company or any other by myside

Love month but I'm alone in my ride

March-with the last full month

I learned to be bold but blunt

Not the same naive girl who once fell in love

Fell in love with you, or was it the idea of love?

April-with few days left

My heart is aching still with my feelings kept

Was it my fault that I fell in love with my bestfriend

Was it my fault that our friendship crashed with an unfathomable end

Five years we've known each other well

But for 10 months, I realized I fell

But don't worry, this secret I won't tell

I'll forget this feeling, erase it in my very being, in my every cell.
