When You Left

It feels like we met only yesterday,
You crashed into me when I was on my way.
Your charming face, made me helpless to resist.
One coffee together, that’s all I insist.
Your one smile every time,
Told me you were mine.
We laughed, we fought and time rolled by,
And with each passing day, stronger grew the tie.
You were the one on whom I can rest my shoulder upon,
With whom I can talk until dawn.
More than myself I loved you,
You were someone out of the blue.
Every day, it was you, who made my day,
I never thought you would leave me in the half-way.
Never in my dreams, I ever wanted you to leave,
Do you even realise your absence has made me weak.
I still remember the terrific day
When I had left nothing to say,
When you left me all alone, forever
And promised me to come back never.
I still can’t get that sight out of my mind,
I think you promised me to always stay mine.
I remember the window and the bed, on which you laid,
On which through your life you never made.
It wasn’t clear back then, it isn’t now.
Thinking about you, still, everything gets blurred,
When I think of your face smeared in blood.
I always asked god why it happened to me and you.
And now there’s left nothing for me to do.
I wish I can come up there and stay in your arms forever,
All my life I have wanted us to stay together.
Now, this pain is something I can’t hide,
I wish you had never died.
