Douleur De Disparu-Pain Of Missing Poem by vayu mankotia

On a december saturday of 2007, i saw her,
Asking for help at a shop i heard her say, sir.
I saw her & i just kept my eyes still,
The boy at the shop requested her with a page, said, mam please fill.
I can't express my heart was beating hard,
She was looking stunning, as she went away buying a sim card.
I was desperate, but nervous too,
i wanted to talk, but couldn't understand what next to do.
I took her number from the form she had filled,
Came home that day, i was thrilled.

Days passed away three or four,
It was wednesday, rain started to pour.
Early morning out of my curiosity i sent her a message, asking how she was?
And to my surprise reply came, but after a long pause.
I told her the truth at that very moment,
Friendship i ask, friendship i want, thats all i meant.
I knew it was hard for her to believe a stranger,
What i expected was anger, and only anger.

I was lucky my humble proposal was acceped,
With a life long friendship promise i was selected.
I called her shohna out of my love & respect,
She named me timbo, it had its own soothing effect.
Months passed & then years,
We met, we talked without tears.
But destiny never works the way we want,
Life is always ready, with new surprises to haunt.
The worst part every story has, is parting,
But the time we spent together & all those moments are everlasting.

I won't say it wasn't my fault, but she had her part too,
Letting her go was something i never wanted to do.
Days pass away now also, but with deep pain,
I still look at that shop, down the lane.
With memories from past i come back home,
Distance between us is larher than rome.
At one side i'm left with a number on my wall,
On the other side, there's no one to answer my call.
I cry out loud, with tears in my eyes,
If it had to end, i wished she had said goodbyes.
