When you left

When you left you left with a chaos,

wriggling its fingers

in the deepest chasms

of my heart.

I was gasping

for love and care,

still clasping

that dream, unfair

still was the pain

woven by the hopes

of meeting again,

while you had decided

that the scope

of us together was none.

There were days of tears,

and then nights of hurting,

the pangs burnt fierce,

there was no sorting

between life and death.

Time heals, they said,

and tried to wash away

my brain,

all those lies they made,

you listened, and gave away

all those entries

down the memory lane

with a snap of your finger,

Tell me,

does that stench of hatred

still lingers

in you?

Tell me,

does it feel good

to have made all those empty promises,

those pinky ones,

of getting stronger

Together

and leave them broken?

Maybe someday

you will realize the weightage,

I have realized mine.

Some days I reflect,

I realize,

I understand

where we went wrong.

It started when

we took each other for granted,

and when I realized,

You were what I needed,

But I,

I was not what you wanted.
