Days of long ago.

Days of long ago
Memories coming back in my mind
Yesterday so clear
As if the years didn’t pass by
As if time stood still
Memories of yesterday
Come flooding in my head

The pain had subside
The sorrow shall-owed
The wound healed
Forever is gone

The unspoken words – lost
The promised memories – forgotten
The beautiful thoughts – gone
The love – died

Do you remember?
The words never spoken?
The feelings never shown?
The promises never kept?

Do you remember the whispers
Through the silent nights?
When the rain was hitting the roof so hard
Thunder light the sky so bright

I was there
Scared
Hurt
Afraid
Through the storm

I was there
Crying
Thinking
Why
How

How could a heart turn so hard
How could love suddenly die
How could the promises be broken
How could you just leave
Suddenly….so simply, leave.

I felt it in your silence
Your unheard voice
Murmuring to my heart
Its all over

Five years…
Bounding
Sharing
Crying
Talking
Whispering

Five years
Promises
Words
Moments
Vows

Five years
Love
Hope
Believe
Trust
Respect

Five years
Ups
Downs
Laughter
Sorrow
Joy
Sadness

Five years
Months
Weeks
Days
Hours
Minutes

Gone
Suddenly
Finished
Soon
Gone
Not coming back

For every minute spent
Over the five years
My heart bled
My eyes cried
My esteem trashed

For every word said
For every promise made
For every laughter
For every tear
For you…

I cried.

I cried silent tears….
Silently I healed my broken heart
Alone
Slowly
Painfully

Maybe one day…..
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe sometimes
I will understand..
Why you left…

Why the world stopped
Why the world darkened
Why the time stood still

Maybe……

Till then….
My heart still hurts
With every heart beat
Every move of the eyelid
Every cell in me
Hurts……..
