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.

Diwali

To Lights
That ended Cold Nights
Silly Fights
Tiring Rights

To Lights
That started New Beginnings
Changing Seasons
Innumerable Reasons

To Lights
That went on
moved on
& let go

To Lights
Of courage
Of departure
Always soothing beyond stature
Always rooting beyond curvature

To Lights
Of Today
Pushing through Tomorrow
To Lights of Yesterday
That sat and watched as days lighted up
Just with a smile that never counted on sorrow

Happy Diwali !!
