Dew Drops

by kamal   Oct 29, 2006


When you faded
Just beyond that point of my eyesight's circumference
It was just then
When-
Involuntarily,
A heavily,
And maybe a bit silly
Sentimental drop of tear was created
That unearthed my unconscious attachment's existence

The soil gradually dampened
But it did not turn soft
My feet remained
In its position already attained
But my legs slightly quivered,
Shivered,
Shuddered
With the fear of solitude's advent
That I never would will to opt

But what choice
Would a soul so young possess?
To run and hold unto?
To plead to remain until wished to?
But the commandment
Was so stringent,
So fully confident,
That it was sure for any voice
To fall only on deaf ears' no place

Only one option
Was left to be revealed
No, not the step towards
Not the voice of words
Only tear drop
Apart from all other attempts atop
Could stop
This was my only means of adoption
Of the belief I so strongly built

I was sure
That I could stop your departure
As I stood there
Watching you disappear
I just couldn't conceive,
Couldn't believe
That you actually took the leave
My flowing tear drops could not ensure
You were beyond my ability to capture

I am no more there standing
And although time has far passed by
My soul still remains
In that moment with pains
Life has carried on
All since with a new dawn
To look forward upon
But the teardrops keep on landing
As a garden of dew drops form by
