My Letter To You -01

Rating: 5.0


It is really
My dear...
like a goodbye letter,
recalling all great
and sorrowful events
that slipped between
the thin silver lining
on the dark and black
cloudsof separation
that engulfed us
with its tough and sharp,
bare and cold hands.

And just because
I couldn't
make myself
to tell you goodbye,
I leave my words
to console you..":

Because, as and when
you would be lonely,
and you may miss
those bygone days
that you spent with me,
you will look at me
through this paper
and hear me
through these words

Please forgive me
because like those days
how I hadbeen
by your side and
until now too...
for forever I can't.
I can't no more,
my dear.

"And whenever
deep within you
in desperate moments..
you will be crying
in silence
on a wet pillow,
this letter
would wipe your tears
out for me"

When you bleed,
on your long and lonely
dry path of pebbles
and thorns of desire,
this letter
would cover your scars
for me..

And when you smile,
in a night of dreams
under the moonlit sky
this letter
would flutter
to see you like this....

The skylark would sing
far in the horizon
beyond the river bank,
and at last
on the branch of the tree
above my graveyard
Where once we
had our last meet..

Breathe for me
if you cannot
breathe someday,

Let me
tie your hairs for you.

Let the breeze
reach your chin.

Let this breeze
warm your ears.
Let this night
whisper all my
songs of love written,
sung and unsung..
heard and unheard
by you..

And whenever deep within you in desperate moments.. you will be crying in silence on a wet pillow, this letter would wipe your tears out for me" Such a deeply felt emotional letter..cant be written without practical experiences I think. Thanks for the sharing.

A totally emotionally charged write. How the earthly words capture the sublime feelings! ! As Tagore says, this is real poetry, where words simply disappear into emotions, feelings, into extreme poetry of love... you remind Neruda..... a ton of 100++s
