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.

Selfish


Our eyes met
As they were meant.
Bowing down relentlessly
To the priceless gesture.
Hands were held
As our hearts felt.
Serving bravely
To the sacred venture.
Selfish as we all are
Painless to the terrible scar.
The forbidden door left ajar.
While minds were at war.
Loving yourself instead
Scared to take the step ahead.
Paths don’t cross
And no one measures the loss.
The faith is endless
But what happens next is clueless.
For you life is
As for life you are.
The stone takes the leap
While the flow changes its course.
Looking at yourself you weep
Not long as Pain eases the source.
