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.

Sitting Beside You

I cannot sit beside you
While you cry.
Dripping drops of tears
Without trying to Stop the smear.
I cannot sit beside you
While you think
As I am afraid
Destiny doesn’t seldom blink.
I cannot sit beside you
While you pray.
Wishing all you want
To be yours as you may.
I cannot sit beside you
When there is someone
Already chosen
For you to stay.
I cannot sit beside you
Yet I won’t deny
That every day
My promise fades
But truth evades
Engraving it to the last evening shade.
