We Exist Poem by Bishnupada Sethi

The entire loneliness haunts me,
The chime of the clock reminds me of your coming,
The evening star mocks at my desperate feelings,
The beauties and bounties around disinterest me.

The foot prints we left
On the seashore of ocean of time,
Shall be washed away
By the cruel waves of the past.
Everything shall be lost,
Which you had said
Still rings in my ear from very close.

But everything exists in my mind today fresh!
We still walk together
Holding hands close to us.
I can feel the warmth of your breath,
Your heartbeats and the closeness of your lips.

Not bothered whether physically here you are,
Nor about the footprints we left on the shore,
As long as I live for I know
You shall be there in my heart,
My mind and my soul.
