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...!
heart touching.... well done... :-)

ReplyDeleteKP,
ReplyDelete"...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!

ReplyDeletewalk away as a mere stranger......after all the things that have transpired in the past, the hurt, the anguish.....
ReplyDeletebeautifully worded ....that person must be so in love....to say "just go"
if at all it was that easy to go,..
ReplyDeleteto ride the guilt,
to confess the sin..
to answer not the world, but self.
