Each Time You Leave

My heart sinks
Each time you leave
And I sit by the shore watching it sink
With no words to describe the sense of restlessness that runs through me
Each time you turn back and leave.
But, soon, it would die too
Giving way to numbness
For, I know you will not stay.
You leave
And the days become dimmer, places quieter.
I wish you knew I am not lying
When I say
This place falls apart without you.
It does fall apart without you.

The System

I have nothing against men, but patriarchy.
I hold no hatred against the other religions, but the ideology of communalism.
I don't hate you old friend for breaking touch, but this fast paced life.
I don't hate you for leaving me, but the circumstances that led us there.
Mum, I don't hate you; but the work that kept you occupied.
Dad, I don't hate you; but your socialization.

Me to Me

I close my eyes
and I am taken to this place I seldom visit
where i am alone
where its me to me
these fancy things boil down, here, to hard realities
what I have and what I don't
does this even matter?
does this even matter,
for you are not here...
Whatever I achieve, wherever I get
the child in me would always crave for your love
But,
the mould in which it was cast has changed
and the breezes among which it flourished and flowered have veered away.

When I can't find words...

I remember times when we shared dreams
When mornings were brighter and nights warmer
The heat between you used to retreat to the morning light
And now, Its a dull dawn without you
All the things I know right now
If I only knew back then
As I let you go, I will find my way
as I still live in your afterglow
In between the longing to hold you again
My mind drifts away, we only have today.
No, I am not breaking down bit by bit
I am just frozen in time
As rain falls, I lie to myself
Its doesn't bring back any memories
As you think I rise above the story of pain,
You would never know mine.
Because when it comes to expressing it to you,
I can't find words...
