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.

Last Night

Last night I kept thinking about you..
Even though you didn’t want me to.
The words filled in a stare..
The walks ending unaware.
Smiles which dropped in..
Promises that fell thin.
Last night I kept sulking about you..
Even though you had asked me not to.
The falsehood pride..
An egoistic ride.
Suddenly a lone confront..
Even though you sat right in front.
Last night I slept ceasing a few..
Moments spent all with you.
Tears pushing through my eye lids..
Going red while holding those orchids.
The first kiss with a light rinse..
Breathing the last sigh.
In deep slumber was I.
