WRITTEN @ STELLAMARIS COLLEGE ABBI

The sun that shone on that day first the sky you beheld

Too many thanks;

A pair of piercing eyes like that of the sun in my darkness

It conferred on you;

Evergreen in my memory you will die.

Today in the field two butterflies together fled and played

The memory of us it triggered;

I watched them part ways like us

In vain I waited to see them rejoin;

Nevertheless we left a memory cherished.

The day you found my secret

Was my darkness moment;

Till date, your eyes never beheld

And in the field we played I stand alone watching the setting sun;

The romance it once held long lost.

God in heaven knows I miss you

Your velvety voice in distance rings everyday;

In every pretty face I meet I see you

My joy and happiness took leave of me;

That day you gave me that four letter word-hate.

On the other end all season

I’ll wait.

Till proper goodbye in me well-expressed and shared.
