Just go...


Good byes are heartless
Valedictory words are needless
Hugs and kisses seem soulless
Handshakes appear juvenile
So Just go..

Do not linger  for last glance
Or fumble for explanations..
For these are futile gestures
of something that never nurtures,
So just go..

Don’t brood over my plight
There would come a day
When your image fades
and withers from my mind…
Until then just go..

There would come a day
When I can overlook you in a crowd..
When I can stare into your eyes and smile
Without a pang or missing a beat
And walk away as mere stranger..
 until that day just go..

As you did today...!

  6. Such kind of pain is difficult to bear. It takes a long time to get over it. Its tormenting.

  14. KP,

    "...until that day just go..

    As you did today...!"

    That was a lovely build-up and the last line delivers a punch...the repetition of "just go" says the opposite "please don't go"...and of course, a type of catharsis...

    Keep writing!

  15. Hey Sameera – yea.. we all are strong aren’t we? We get to know that only during tough times..

    @ Little heart, Saru, Viyoma – thanks a lot..!!

    @ Aakash – Thanks for the support and encouragement, I guess I will..

    @ Arjun – Yes.. when we read again, it is kind of self-cleansing.. or like a child repeating to herself at dark, not to panic.. Nice angle of thoughts you have..!

  21. walk away as a mere stranger......after all the things that have transpired in the past, the hurt, the anguish.....
    beautifully worded ....that person must be so in love....to say "just go"

  22. if at all it was that easy to go,..
    to ride the guilt,
    to confess the sin..
    to answer not the world, but self.

  24. I can appreciate the sentiment that went into writing this....
