The Art Of Letting You Go
Sometimes it appears to me as a thought,
Sometimes it's just a dream,
But the only part constant in them is you...
Ruining me in the process and my life's theme.
But I really like it...
You and your thoughts,
Coming to my abode, sometimes in a sudden manner only to
Wreck me more than I have sought.
Do I still remember, if you might ask,
Our first meeting, our first exchange of words...?
The answer will always be a yes!
Because it was one fateful summer
When I thought I'd hate you forever but promises are for cowards.
But not always all hates hold the same meaning...
I do hate you and may be I'll continue.
How did I end up like this will always be my question to ask!
When I was meant to be one of your few!
May be I was forbidden to fall in love with you,
But I have always considered it as my fate.
May be you were never my destiny,
May be I was too late.
But you can never deny
That you didn't love me, even if it was for a second.
Because those eyes hold enough truth in them,
More then the stars and beyond.
Five autumns had passed by
But it still feels like yesterday...
When you told me with that smile,
"Hey! I'll be going away!"
Did you hear the shattering sound?
Or the droplets at the corner of my eyes?
Or the unnerving thoughts that were eating me,
And the endless sighs?
How am I supposed to forget
That enchanting smile, those deep eyes...
Those affections reserved only for me,
And that voice and the songs they used to sing?
I still go to those places,
I still wander my hands...
I still wonder if you would appear,
To take me to your lands.
It feels unreal that you are not here,
It feels so real that you have disappeared...
The emptiness is like a slap
Because I couldn't hold the person
Who was so dear.
There are times when I feel like screaming out your name.
But then I realize it would all go in vain,
That you are hard to tame.
My wishes for you always will be
What they used to be...
That you achieve what you have wanted,
And you stay happy.
I have one request though
If you care enough from the deems.
Can you please return for real someday...
And quit coming in my dreams?
You will see that I still hold that place for you...
Deep in my heart.
You will know in my eyes that
I'll always love you even if I was hurt.
I am lost in that maze,
Where I am still looking for you.
And I am constantly tripping
Just like a grass dew.
I have always been in love with you,
If that I could only show...
And tell you one last time
That I am yet to master
The art of letting you go...
