Now the morning doesn’t shine as it used to,
I wake up every morning
Hoping there would be a text from you,
But all I get is the unread messages I sent you.
Somewhere we grew apart.

I kept my love the same for you,
But you stopped loving as you used to.
Every day I would wait hoping to hear from you,
And every day, all day I just keep waiting.
Somewhere we grew apart.

Before you would talk with me for hours,
And the hours felt like mere seconds
And now we don’t even talk for a second
Daily conversation has now become a memory.
Somewhere we grew apart.

I am still standing on the same page,
Where you were also there the last time
But now it seems like you now have even changed the book
You don’t love me anymore you just say you do.
Somewhere we grew apart.

Before you would go after who had hurt me,
What would you do now when it is you who is hurting me.
Now, you deliberately say things to break me,
You are pushing me away from you.
Somewhere we grew apart.

Isn’t is weird that you now are a stranger to me,
A stranger about whom a I know a hundred things that others don’t.
You always were an extrovert,
Somehow you moved on while still being with me.
Somewhere we grew apart.

Far from my world,
On the unknown beaches of Goa
I was wandering off
Alone in the dark of the night.
The fall had made its presence known,
With the diminished sunlight
And the light cool winds flowing towards right.

The silence of the night was comfortable
Like the sweet liquid of the tree maple.
When I first came here,
I felt a burden which I couldn’t bear.
Walking isolated I stared dead into the ocean,
Feeling powerless; void of any emotion.
The sense of utter devotion, came into notion.

I sat there in solitude,
Lost in the moment of interlude.
For a minute everything stopped
My eyes towards the ocean locked.
Blurry minds and messy thoughts,
Do the people of the world really do what they ought.

Hundreds of questions engraved my mind,
But still none of them I could find.
Deciding to let it all go,
I cried hard with the water flow.
Relaxed and rejuvenated I left that shore,
And I promised the tears will spill no more.
