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.

I Lied

I lied..
All this while.
I lied when you looked at me,
Lied when I couldn’t even see.
I lied when you were close,
Lied when you chose.
I lied by the sidewalk,
Lied when you didn’t talk.
I lied to the response,
Lied cause you were gone.
I lied to the fact,
Loosening the impact.
I lied because I couldn’t,
Plead that you shouldn’t.
I lied I don’t know why,
Lie seems easier than cry.
I lied to the truth,
I lied with faith, 
I lied so that you may,
Make your mind to stay.
But you never did lie,
Only you didn’t bother to try.
