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.

Long After

Long after I am gone ..
Remember I was the one..
That waited for you long enough.
Compared to the shadows..
That fled scared of shun.
Long after I am gone..
Remember I was the one..
That spoke about you among the few.
Compared to the ones that..
Stuck with you just for a drink or two.
Long after I am gone..
Remember I was the one..
Who picked up dark over the spark..
Of a cozy comfort virtue..
Compared to the ones who fled ..
From your side as soon as they got any clue.
Long after I am gone..
Don’t forget me as a residue..
But remember me as the one..
Who followed you after all that I knew..
When everyone else drew..
A change across what they found new.
