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.

It's Your Birthday

Birthdays 
Are the days 
When we get to live all the
Days of our life
Yet again
In an Infinite loop...

Eating the First Joyous Scoop...
Remembering the Notorious Troop
That you belonged to, back in School..
The College bluffs..
The Unending Romantic fluffs..
The Dupe of a Friend..
The  Stoop of an Offend..
The Winning Streak..
The Lowest Peak...
That Tragic Miss..
That Magical Kiss..
The Faces that clicked..
The Chases that felt tricked..
The Nest that always felt protected..
The Times you tried your best and yet
Got Rejected
The Smiles that were welcoming
The Hands that were overwhelming to hold you 
As you helped them to get..
What they wanted...
The Unconditional rages..
The Substantial stages
That You passed And Failed
That Marked you
Yet always got that Hidden Spark lit up with every scorn..
As you celebrate yet another Year Since you were Born..
