After years of silence and saying nothing to each other.
You suddenly texted me asking about my well-being.
Typing the reply for the same, my hands stutter.
How can I be good when connecting us, there was no string?

How can I tell you that I stayed there where you left me?
How can I say "I wish I should have stopped you"?
How can I mention, after leaving you my life is devoid of glee?
After all that, saying the truth, how am I supposed to do?

"Home is where the heart is" I hope you have heard that too.
My home always belongs to the place wherever you go.
I know you left me saying about the differences in our point of view.
But I haven't thought of anything else and I guess I should let you know.

So, if you wanna know how I am, then believe me I've been better.
I was the happiest man when you were around.
Without you, I'm not much of a go-getter.
I'm still waiting, no matter how weird it may sound.
The reply to "HOW ARE YOU?" is not always that simple, easy and joyous....
