A Grieving Traveler

I sat in a train again Without you... I sat with pain again Without you.. I wish you were there I wish to get back your stare I wish to share some words How I wished to look out of the window the same way as yesterday.. This journey that I start again Without you... This journey that I pause more often Without you... As there is no one to put a hand on My shoulder of disdain.. As there is no one to just make a  Harmless gesture of being insane.. How I wished to sip that cup of tea with a relentless life beyond the sea waiting to be free.. *Dedicated to my mom as she shares her feeling of loneliness after my dad passed away last year. They both used to love traveling together... * picture courtesy the author while she captures this on her train ride to  Carlisle, PA.

Promise



I see your eyes
All through the dark nights.
When asleep
Dreams diving deep.
Drowning as I try harder to breathe
There are promises to keep.
Your hands still holding me
Tugging me through the streets
When alone
Endless emotions piercing the bone.
Running towards the crowd as I catch my breath.
There are hopes to meet.
The past cannot protect
No matter how hard it affects.
To my inner voice
I make a choice.
The time needs to take a leap.
Though there are scars to seep.
I promise not to weep.
