Poem by Ananya Agarwal
Why did you lose me?
Here in earth and heaven
Never will my love reduce for you
The long days or the never ending nights,
The dreams of being with you
Wanting to hear you out
Or rather having the time we used to.
From irritating to gossiping
From fighting to withstanding
Never would I lose your side
For then why did you lose me?
Went on a place I could never talk
Never knew whether you were good enough
Happy without us….
The smile through your eyes,
The care through your words
The shoulder for the tears
Or the back for my fears…
I was in love with your voice
Or the pattern of the noise,
From giggling to screaming
Never would I lose you
For then why did you lose me?
I miss you as a teddy misses the hugs
Or the stars without the moon
You were mere friend when you were here,
But your mere absence has made me numb.
For why does it happen?
Why did u just had to lose me?
Today as I know, late but realized
No amount of time I was with you
Did I ever re-read those memories
Cherish the moments with you;
Cauz weren’t we too busy
Running for the new and not stopping afar.
Every day gives a lesson
Your departure gave me a life lesson,
The short time was enough for us,
For you could just walk away,
Pondering me with a question
Why did you lose me?
All I could know now
So let us all focus on the present
Cauz today is always a gift
For the future always remains a mystery.
One never knows or could live…
Though I am in love with your voice
Or the pattern of your noise
The shoulder for my tears
the back for my fears…
