Since You're Gone

You came like a gush of wind

And intersected my life at a few days,

At first I thought it to be just a prologue

But the years went all the same after you left.

It seemed we were destined to meet

And stay together till the eternity ends,

But it was just for few small moments

And my whole life collapsed in them.

My life is now just a dot of fullstop

Though I still hope that someone would come

And place two more dots in my life

To tell me it’s just a break

And will continue up on the next turn.

I walk alone with my tired legs

Which are near to collapse anytime,

And try to take just another step

After each efforted one.

I sometimes feel lucky to have felt

Love for you in my heart

The joy, the happiness, those sweet memories

Which are now weaved with my past.              

I thought to carry them all through my life

But these are the memories that only stay,

Everything else has vanished as like time

And it seems a dead me living like hay.

I often hear people advising me

‘Don’t try to kill yourself!’

Though no on can kill someone

Who is already dead!

The world all seems black and white

And I often mistake thorns with the petals of flowers,

And close my eyes whenever the wind

Comes near my body after touching yours.

I look at the moon with mutual being

May you be seeing the same moon

And wonder what you’d be thinking

While I am thinking of you.

I hope for my miseries to end

And try to move on (as a dead)!

But trying to forget someone you love seems like

Finding the stars behind the clouds.

When nothing works, I go and sit

Between the closed walls, among the darkness,

Resting along a wall, my hands around my legs,

And with tears rolling down to wet my neck.

You left my life as the day

Vanishes when the night follows,

While I try to find you as the sky

Tries to reach its ultimate height.

I feel like a lonely drop of water

That hides from getting evaporated;

And try to get my life back

Though it seldom happens to find a dead live.
