New Found "Super-Earth" Planet

Superearth - New Planet Spotted Today(25-04-2007) - video powered by Metacafe

The discovery of a "super-Earth" orbiting a red dwarf star 9,000 light-years away suggests that such worlds are three times more common than Jupiter-sized planets. The 13-Earth-mass planet (shown in this artist's conception with a hypothetical moon) was detected by a search for microlensing events, in which the gravity of a foreground star distorts the light of a more distant background star. Microlensing is the only way to detect Earth-mass planets from the ground with current technology. Credit: David A. Aguilar (CfA)

Waiting in vain

Have you ever felt being alone once? Well I have.

I have someone I love right now. We are more than four months and will be five soon. But this somebody is gone right now. I am waiting in vain for that person. I just don't know how to feel. Waiting for somebody you don't know when that person will come back is like waiting for the sun to rise in a planet that has only nights. I cannot take this any longer. That person has been long gone for more than two weeks now and without communicating me. I know that being in a rural area and no network signal is a valid excuse but still that person should have exert an effort.

I love this person and i just don't know what am i going to do now.
Should I stay and wait?
or
Should I go and look?

I'm too wasted.
I'm too tired of thinking.
I'm too tired of crying.

I want that person.
I need that person.

Hey, you know who you are.
Will you please come back? Now!
