You and I joined the school on the same day
It was beginning of journey in half senses of life.
Talking endlessly, building castle for life.
Fun, play and mischief’s were as usual as of childhood
Our association grew with the passage of time
Your gleaming face, mystic smile sparked the feeling of love in my heart
The inspiration and concern shown, made me feel, you to be a part of my life.
Without seeing you the days never use to be complete.
Every morning, with some pretension use to be around the school entrance
Your deep sight and blooming face use to enlighten my day
You became the inspiration for my vision
All my actions and achievements use to give more happiness to you than me.
Summer holidays were never an appeasement
Not seeing you use to be a disappointment
Excuses were made best to the wisdom
Some were with profound reason and some were with guilt on the face.
Mom’s permission use to make me fly like a wind
Ferrying around your house use to be adventure of the day
Your one glimpse use to give thrill for few days
Returning home was never more than snail speed.
Seeing mom’s mood, use to enter the house.
Use to open the book, even with out will to read.
Our school fare well became a departure for life
Left me desheartened and many promises unkept
Now the decades have gone even memories are fading
All your knownness were probed best to my wit
No one could give any clue of your where about.
Still there is wish to see you before you could wrinkle
Your place is still vacant at the bottom of my heart.
This is a very beautiful poem. It brings back the memories of your high school love. Really sweet.
Your place is still vacant at the bottom of my heart.... nice o rememeber pleasant school day and it's memory.....10
Thank you, for your invitation to read, your poem. How it brings back, memories, I imagine to a lot of people. Who, hasn't gone though first love? That's the one, we never forget, as it was just that, our first love! I think most of us, deep inside, wonder, what became of them and which direction, did life take them. In our own way, we hope they found, what they were looking for and have made a life for themselves. I'm sure, they think of us too, in the same manor. A very lovely write and very nostalgic!

If something or someone is meant for you, it will happen.
Wow, it is real sweet... Childhood memories with bittersweet love.
You are great poet, you flashes the memory of the living.But are you not married? I pray you find her.You can read my poem named Eternal love.
very nice one. it took me back to the mid seventies, when i too experienced all these. now wrinkles are slowly encroaching and, so too, most probably, on that face and skin which i yearn to see.
wow, a nice one. life is a sweet bitter experience of memories and realities and leaves behind a nostalgic memory that haunts us for long.
Very nicely written, you tell such a bittersweet story. We have our memories that we reach back to and hold on to them. You tell it so well with words that flow and most can relate so well.Thank You for sharing. Great write 10
