wish

After the day you said to depart
My tears did not obey and rolled down my cheeks,
The ones which you said never should get wet.
Hence I wished you would come to change the decision.                   
      



I sat on the couch staring at the door
Startled at each noise and at each foot step,
where you used to hold my hands and talk for long hours.
I wished you would come to have a look how I am.



Looking at the mirror I again wish to see you
as I do while getting ready for a walk with you,

and you used to smile at my postures and gestures.
I wished you would come to fill my heart with the same excitement.


Every breath I take and every moment I spend
I owe it to you and your love for me,
which is as pure as the holiest shrine so
I believe you will come to fill my life's emptiness.
