Last few months
I missed missing you
And I forgot the pleasure
I used to get
Of missing and longing for you-
For you are with me
All the times these days!!!...
U are present so intimately
Woven around me so tightly
Just like a worm in its cocoon
That I could never get a chance
To miss you - again-like before…
The pain of separation
Is always blessed with
Hope of getting together again
Months of togetherness can’t compensate
Separation of even a fraction of second
It seems to me
For ages I haven’t seen you
I miss you now…
I miss your touch….your cuddle
Your hug….your whispers….
So many thoughts
Accumulated inside me
Please come soon
So many hungry anxious desires
Eager to pour themselves out
But are confided by
A thick wall of helplessness.
I have actually started hallucinating
Seeing and feeling you very near
As if you are never away
Still hiding somewhere very near
And will reappear just now
With a cup of tea in hand
Requesting me to eat something
Expressing your concern, saying-
‘How tired my beloved is!’
I want to hear those words again…
Don’t know how I will manage
To pass my whole life- without you…
Now it seems
So very difficult and impossible
How I pass those long years away from you
How can I console
My helpless poor soul now?
What should I say to myself??
Things are much tougher now
U’ve taken away a part
Of myself – my soul in fact
Only this lifeless body is left behind
And crying to join you…
Promise me…
U’d never do this to me
….again
…so cruelly
…in next births to come…
