Graveyard of Time
From the rain drenched boulevard
Your aura just came in
And knocked at my senses softly
You once left me alone…
Without even saying goodbye
But you couldn’t leave from my heart
Now as I stood still…
Staring at infinity
I don’t know why some silent tears
Are swelling in my eyes.
Oblivious to the rain now
I went ahead… all alone…
Into the darkness…beyond the fading lights
Hoping ardently that we’ll meet once again
Unbounded by shackles
Freed of all bonds except love…
Me graying and ageing
You still as beautiful as ever
Remember… courage failed you once
Promise me that you won’t fail me then
We’ll fly once again…
Hand in hand…
Our souls warming up to the new freedom
Oh! That will be something to look forward to
…all my life!
As I move ahead reminiscing my memories
A solitary tear drop is forcing its way down…
Like the opening of the torrents within
Like the liberation of vintage emotions
How can I tell you dear…
What an inexplicable pain it is…
To know that the moments we’ve shared together
Will only remain memories…
A dull pain somewhere deep brings me back to reality.
And unanswered questions start…
Haunting my existence again---
Can hope and despair co-exist?
Do prayers ever come true?
Can people like me ever live?

I've been a silent visitor to ur blog since months..but never got enough time to choose the best among ur works..and there was something my eyes were trying to search everytime..i got limpid picture of which in this very poem..
I sometimes wonder..Is it possible to portray our feelings in any form? be it poems, yarns..or paintings..n if yes..then how far can one justify its true feelings on it..After reading this poem..i got my answer.
It showed every pain..which one could feel, live and die with when one has lost someone close to heart...One word for ur work is..AWESOME!! Keep the gr8 work going... I feel..this poem is yet to complete..is it still seeking an end??
