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.

Tell Me

Tell me that you love me..
And I don’t.
Tell me that you left me..
And I won’t.
Tell me that you forgot..
And I didn’t.
Tell me that you got me..
While I couldn’t.
Tell me that’s what fools do..
Tell me that’s what you always knew.
Tell me that unlike you..
I wasn’t going to.
Tell me you sensed trust..
But you couldn’t just.
Tell me that you went wierd..
While for me was empathy smeared.
Tell me that you had filled in..
While I was spilled thin.
Tell me some words..
Tell me nothing works..
Tell me long before..
As you weren’t even planning..
To step outdoor.
While I keep counting over and over..
Your footsteps galore.
