My U Poem by Soumi Mukhopadhyay

The big round eyes behind his spectacles....said an unknown story....
it was incomplete and full of worry...
I once saw the void and pain
in the name of happiness...
he tried to suppress his pain....
he laughed with his heart out....
I don't know what I heard in that shout...
in the mist of smoke and chemicals....
I found him as my mirror....
day was spend...like that hundred days spend......
we spoke..we cried...we smiled...we loved...always...
I and u became we...
He became my soul of peace..... I became his smile....
in that stormy night also...he held my hand so tight....
then a gust of wind came.....
all precious moments lost in dreams...
only sadness touched me....
with it came fear and grief...
he was there watching it all along...
I was alone fighting in the storm....
I was there when he needed me...
I never left him...
he never fought his battles alone...
now when the dusk kisses the ground.....sun leaves the sky...
shadows grow long....
I wait for him....with longing eyes and broken heart...
with the hope that he once looks back...
but all is in vain..
he has moved on....he says...
I should also. But he stays...
inside deep me....
that big round magical eyes....are now mine....
with emptiness waiting for it to shine....
