Out Of Sight Poem by Shelvakumari Thachayil

Where your face was reflected lovely
You are sand, wind, sun, and burning sky
My heart beside should I forget
You are thirst and thirst is all I know
Always to be near you even in my heart
Mold again a figure of you
A longing for nothing but to long
In a brief dreamy kind delight
How little I thought a year ago
May you are alone in your own life
No one will enter your dreams
I am feeding myself and I hate myself
How do I say I miss your scolding and presence
Your last words glazed through your dark eyesF
Following me fast as you could
My life was like a dark cold night
Empty thoughts and shattered dreams
All the little things I miss
So I just want you to know
I can't find the words to say
How lost I am inside this vacuum
My soul can reach when feeling out of sight
For with my death the whole truth shall be seen.
