The way you walked away
Without looking back
Without a word
And disappeared
Around the curve
I don’t remember
For how long I stood there
With so many emotions
Yet with a blank look
On my face
I wanted to scream
In the dark and silent night
Where no one would hear me
Yet I stood silent
Listening to the trees sway
I walked away from you
As far as I could
Hoping to avoid
Even the thoughts of you
Ignoring the fact that
You were in my veins
Little did I know
And little did you know
We were never meant to be
Apart.
Now one might wonder that I have an amazing (romantic) life but let me assure you that is not the case. I usually write poems out of my imagination and this one was no different. However the inspiration for this one was unusual. While coming back to home, I saw that the usual yellow street lamps were replaced with white led lamps. Combine them with a little fog and you have an amazing scene that could very well umm.. well yeah figure that out for yourself. 😉
“Ignoring the fact that you were in my veins”. My favourite lines, and this is my favourite poem of yours so far. THIS IS BEAUTIFUL. ❤
