I don't have you now,
but I still carry the trace of you—
the way your voice settled into my days,
gentle, steady, unforgettable.
I keep the warmth of your presence
like a note tucked in my heart,
faded at the edges,
but never losing its meaning.
I don't measure time in calendars,
but in the spaces between
your last word and my waiting silence.
I wonder if you know
how often I return
to the smallest pieces of you—
moments you may have let slip,
but I still hold like treasures.
Because sometimes,
love doesn’t stay in what is,
but lingers quietly
in what we remember,
in what we keep.
The first fragrant, the eternal pleasure
With you I'm still in the tender weather
Musical breezes whisper your billet daux
As your hands play with my silky locks
bells of my anklet copied your lip chimes
My thirsty ears enjoy the sea of rhymes
Divine dawn in your town,here setting sun
Barren bough still waits cuckoo's sweet hum
I know you won't come to me
A broken branch can't hug the tree.
(***** Priya Tomar *****)
I wonder if you still think of me
As I have always thought of you
Wonder if you look down to me
From the heavens that they have granted you
wonder if you still love me
Oh the two prettiest eyes i ever knew
~sylva
Those rosy lips belonged to once mine
And star like eyes full of blue wine
Brought the sunshine in my dark yard
Memories rule mind,I'm now a sad bard
You still whisper like a soft breeze
joyful gesture I feel in dancing trees
Ah! December to june, spring came to dune
Nothing ! Nothing ! All faded away soon
