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.

Why Don't You ?

Why don’t you look ?
I don’t want to..
But why ?
Cause it’s a shadow..
Then why don’t you follow.
Why should I ?
Then do deny..
It’s better to just lie.
Why don’t you see ?
I can’t..
But why?
Cause there’s a dark tree..
Are you scared?
Or have you decided to flee?
It doesn’t matter..
As whatever visible is colossal scatter.
Why don’t you come ?
I won’t.
Cause the bridge is broken..
And the shallow drift has spoken.
As empty noises awoken..
Leaving an unfinished token.
But don’t ask me why..
As you said I shouldn’t choose to lie.
And even though it gives you sore..
I keep my promise ..
To stay no more.
