I'll never see your face again...Part 2

The time passed slowly, flying above the ocean.

As soon as I landed back on earth

As soon as I found reception

The first text went out to you.

Herculean courage to type those 7 words

Re-read the text so many times

Before I finally sent, “back from the trip. How are you?”

Waited for a second and almost regretted having sent.

An instant reply, “m good, cn u talk?”

Had my heart racing like mad.

Maybe you wanted to fight some more.

I’ll hear you yell, sober this time.

Sheepishly escaped my parents’ eyes

Drifted away for some privacy.

A sea of unsettling tide of emotions

I decided to be formal with you.

Surprisingly, I heard a warm you, from the other side.

No more cocky, just genuine emotions after a long time.

The wonder struck me when we met in a few days

I had thought I’ll never see your face again

Felt like I found something I lost in the fight with time.

You weren’t different; you were what you used to be.

Back to the mystic chivalry, the winks, the naughty glance.

Making me dance as we walked hand in hand.

Still I had no clue what I was up for.

Till we decided to descend the stairs.

A stair ahead of you, as you followed.

You pulled me back and kissed my lips.

So unprepared it was so clumsy,

But I loved to get your taste again.

A kiss on my hand, and those fixed eyes.

Catching gazes more than ever, but you didn’t really care this time.

For all you had were eyes for me.

And I dutifully listened to you.

Soon  it was time to go.

I wish I could stay, but I had to go.

You weren’t ready to separate just as yet.

Extended your stay a little more.

In our last moments together, you said you’ll come back to me.

The days apart were just as harsh and more to you.

For a moment I forgot to breathe.

Not ready to believe what I had just heard.

Wet eyes, hadn’t seen you like this in so long.

Body and emotions acted at once.

Wish I could you hug there and then.

Back to my heaven, in your arms again.

I'll never see your face again... Part -1

In the dead of the night

I hushed as I spoke to you

I was scared if you’d be overheard

Hadn’t heard you shout so loud before.

                   

You said, “I’m done with you, never wana hear your voice again”

My heart skipped a beat with each word you spoke

You were like a different man

Not the one I had loved so long

I knew I’ll never see your face again

I didn’t cry a tear, just turned around in my bed

Quietly, I went back to sleep

When the morning comes this will be over

But the nightmare shouted in my ears all night

The next morning, I flew to another land, for some days now I’ll be gone.

I settled to be dissipated

I knew this was coming one day

The beginning of this journey was an end of that something big

I knew I’ll never see your face again.

That trip was no holiday, a pain in me I didn’t accept.

I was half way around the country away from you

There was no means to check on with you

To make me believe what I heard was true.

5 days without you…seemed like an eternity.

Easily irritated and restless, everyone seemed bothersome.

You’ll be better off without me, now things have changed

All good things come to an end.

I knew I’ll never see your face again.

You complete me....

 Life before you had less meaning

The guys to my status were demeaning

You came and turned it all around.

I heard myself in a new sound.

When we got together

There wasn’t anything I didn’t love about you

Your pictures, your words, your smile

Those poems, the gestures, your style.

You loved me like no one ever did.

My existence found a new meaning

But little did we know it’d rain so soon.

We tried our best to sail through

But failed so many times.

We weren’t letting go despite of the storm.

All we needed was some moments apart

To realise, to be back forever in our hearts.

The pain of separation, the fear of losing you.

Scared to move on, not ready to fight.

The world around isn’t good to trust

For all my faith lies within you

What we’ve had won’t happen again

Better cherish the love we have within.
