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.

Child In You

Blowing bubbles..
Popping one by one.
Splashing water..
Roaring with laughter.
Going round and round..
Until you hit the ground.
Rowing innocence..
With simplifying nonsense.
Bowing with gratitude..
To avoid solitude.
Rattling stubbornness..
Fighting keenness.
Hitting the run..
Not forfeiting the fun.
Holding the need..
Never thinking where it leads.
Fearless trip..
And a never ending grip.
Instant tears..
With wholesome cheers.
The art of discover..
Ignoring the cover.
Truth ain’t trouble..
And lies are feeble.
Your reflection distracts..
What attracts is the child in you.
