WHEN YOU ARE GONE
My space is
empty
Only
solitude remains.
In the shadow of sadness
Trying to
erase you from my mind,
But the
moment eyes closed
You’re there
standing.
Do you
remember?
“No
more private dreams
Our
dreams mingled
Two
souls unite
When
love finds and binds the two of us”.
Do you
remember?
All the
comforts of life we shared,
Happy and sad days combined,
you by my side.
Warrant of destiny
came in surprise form
And you’re
gone forever.
Only the
presence of happy memories remains, now tinged with sadness!
Inescapable sorrows
and happiness are elements of solitude for the moment?
