Only your absence,
Taught me the significance of time
For in the presence,
I only have recollections hidden within my heart,
Not your availability.

Nor I know the colour of your love,
Have memories that are dear to heart,
Neither a photograph to relive our yesterday

It is just a sound of your name,
I've heard in one of the fantasies,
Though our path never crossed,
Yet my heart yearns for you.

Dashes as same as the midnight bird!
It doesn't stay long,
Yet keeps you awake
But it come and goes,
And leave you running after it,
Because we can never be on time.

I fell in love
And out of love with you
When truthfulness expired between us.

Sometimes I dive in the ocean I'm unable to swim,
Too deep and three hundred and sixty degree freezing,
A trauma on its own right?

Well, I drown while wearing my smiling face,
with no one to pull me up,
but a pen and a piece of a paper.
