Sometimes I wish

Sometimes, during desperate moments I just wish you would understand the person


hidden behind the veils of laughter

and your arms would come around to comfort me

of the endless, senseless pain

caused strangely by your indifference....

Sometimes when the void threatens to consume me

And your absence takes its toll

Above everybody’s presence

I just wish that for a few moments I could call back

The times when we could talk about ourselves

Instead of the whole world around us.

Sometimes when the depth of the ocean mocks

The sea of tears held up inside me

I wish you would just appear and let me cry on your shoulder

Just for once

And let me break down oblivious

To the self erected bounds of loneliness.

Sometimes when life looks down and me and guffaws

At the moments when I neglected to care for you

When you were still there

I wish you would walk in from the doorway

And tell me that it is never too late

Sometimes when the chords of some lost song

Falls upon my ears

I close my eyes and pray that you could feel

The melancholy and for once feel the same way as I do

Sometimes when I come across happiness

I crave for your company

To make it meaningful and worth recollecting.

Sometimes when I feel that we were so meant to be

Yet always distant, separated by an invisible force

I curse myself for my helplessness

And ask for a chance to make you smile.

Sometimes when I trip across the laughing face of yours when we last met

I wish I could have somehow

Stolen that moment from the stream of time

Kept it safe in my heart forever.
