Nothing is mine. Never wrote a Mentalist fic before. It's a poem I had written long back, somehow I found this to be fitting. Do let me know what you think of it.

I stand alone at the shore

Waiting

Waiting for

The clouds to part

Like curtains

Unveiling

A sliver of silver crescent…..

She smiles

Yet,

I feel numb

Like an empty bottle of rum

My insides are frozen

Icy icicles pierce my veins

I'm cold

All alone

My eyes search

The choking darkness

In vain

Someone turn the light on

It's driving me insane

My cold stone heart weeps

My heart's most precious desire

Has burned itself in hell's fire

I know not how

I know not when

But I'm on my knees

The truth hits me

With the vigor

Of a gale

He won't come

He won't hail my name

There will be none-

No kisses,

No fights,

No hugs,

I sigh- Resigned

I know not how

I know not when

But,

Warm hands touch me

Sending shivers down my veins

The ice melts

My heart is on fire

Blazing in the warmth

His lips brush lightly on my cheek

His arms encircle my waist

Pulling me upright

My heart races

I look up at his angelic face

So different

And

Yet so same

He looks in my eyes

I know

What will he say

I know

That I don't need to hear it

We gaze…

Searching….

Words unspoken flow

From

Mind to mind

From

Heart to heart

Forget it

Let's go home

I state, slipping

My hand into his

He smiles

The smile that lights up my world

Face radiant

Eyes twinkle

Bright with

Myriads of mischief

And he quips

Hey Lisbon!

Let's go have an ice- cream!
