A Time So Sweet

By V.Mahanth Krishna

As I sit back and reminisce,

I wonder, will there be another time,

So sweet that it turned the tide of day.

Those conversations shared, which I thought were mine,

And only mine, now a faint memory, erased from her mind.

As more and more time passes by, I wonder,

Will I be forgotten, was I just a small phase,

Of whom I revered, I cherished, I loved, with

All of my heart, and now to think of her,

As far and distant, it pains me.

All her smiles, all her laughs, I thought,

Were borne only of me, but I realise my fallacy,

She shall have found another solace,

And there I lay, beside the dust, cast aside,

By the one whom I thought was meant to be mine.

Alas! My heart still yearns for her voice and smile,

And again and again to not falter and try,

To make her see what I can offer her.

She is blinded by doubt, hesitation, and remorse,

Which at last, she never wants to heal and cure.
