Love Poem: Keep the Pain Alive

Keep the Pain Alive

When I feel this pain,
How the brain says let go of it,
Heart says hold on to it,
For that's the only way I feel you these days.

I'm trying hard not to let go,
I'm trying hard not to let this absence become the way of life,
I'm trying hard to focus, I'm knowing how many minutes are there in the day,
For, every alternate minute you come to my mind !!

I do what I am told to,
I inform you of my happiness,
I don't have you to share it,
I don't know who else to share it with.

When we were ''You'' and ''I'',
The ''You'' was more important than ''I'',
Life gifted us the ''We'',
Now, it is again the ''You'' and ''I'',
But, with the ''I'' more important than ''You''.
