And I was falling,
So fast
Reducing constantly
To become nothing
And I was barely breathing
A heart forced to beat
Eyes bloodshot
But you could not see
And you were blinded
From the self-despair and pity
A heart
Torn and stomped all over
And you were shaking
From the tremors
only You could feel
But I could not steady your hands
I was waiting for you to save me,
I forgot magic only happens when you least expect it
You were waiting for me to notice
You forgot I was too caught up fighting my own battles
You were bitter
Over the times I had let you go
You forgot
I loved you w every ounce of my being
I was broken
Over the times you did not care enough
I forgot
You are a human with your own limits
And so we fell apart
In the most common ways
We forgot what we had
Because we were too busy grieving what the other person lacked
And now that the end is near
I see where we went wrong
I loved you and you loved me
But love
is almost never enough
And I got my wish
With my last breath I took your name
The earth shook,the sky turned black,
This is my last farewell
I'll never see you again

So many aftershocks have got me losing my grip and when that happens, I write, a lot. RIP people who died in Nepal and strength to their families. Also people in north India like me, just hang on. I know it is hard but... I can understand. and every life is precious so just take care of yourself and those around you
