To You...



Don't you know, it is over...
Don't you know, I am moving on.
Though you're still in my heart somewhere...
I hide your remains and laugh along.

Where were you...
When the clouds where crowding in.
Not a sound...
When my heart was dying within.

And today you say- 
"Hey, how are you.
I'm happy , doing fine...
And I miss you".

Why...
Do you do this to me.
I am nursing a broken heart...
Why break it some more for me.

You got your lucky breaks...
Your life is set and stable
Why come to me..
Just to make me miserable.

Or prove to me...
Then and now.
That I can't run from you...
That you're irreplaceable somehow.

Do my tears fill up...
Gaps in your time table.
Does my emptiness...
Make you feel plentiful.

Guess, it's time to amend the ending...
Bring myself to revolt and defy.
Smile up at the rising sun...
And look at you eye-to-eye.

Saying- " Hey...
Remember me ?
You broke and choked the life I had...
But I stand again, don't you see.

I bought a new paint brush...
And some new paper roll.
I'll sketch a new life...
All on my own.

I will build my pair of wings...
I will fly.
Across the oceans, above the hilltops...
Free, till the day I die.

This I promise...
To you.
I'm done wanting to be loved back...
Thank you".

  1. Well written, especially the last para ends on a strong note.

    The pic and theme of the poem reminded me of this:http://life-in-a-jiffy.blogspot.in/2011/05/seeds-of-sorrow.html

    1. Thanx, sam.. :) Beginnings are taken. Endings are at hand. I'd rather keep them strong. :)
