My Love Has To Live

I must help myself to fight the numbness…
My Love Has To Live
Why is life keeping us apart?
Highly painful is this part.
Nature’s beauty fails to appeal.
Loneliness is out to kill.
Eyes search for a lone star.
As she and me are at par.
Cluster of stars causes depression.
Our family is not together; sheer jealousy is the reason.
Our son has taken this in his stride.
Wherever you are; his father is his pride.
You are his role model.
He keeps you on the highest pedestal.
I am all admiration for this bond.
Tears fill my ‘visual’ pond.
To me, morning, noon or night makes no difference.
Hours from the twenty four have no preference.
Severe winter has set in.
Biting cold is pricking like pin.
Hurting is this prick.
But lot lesser than loneliness’ lick.
Black cat is mewing.
That eerie sound and its eyes are no longer scaring.
I don’t shiver with dog’s bark.
Gone are those days when I hid behind someone’s back.
Numbness has taken over.
Fear and pain is gradually getting over.
You are returning in a few days’ time.
Why am I not hearing happiness’ chime?
Where have I lost all my excitement?
To search and find will be my top priority assignment.
I will not let my happy-go-lucky nature submerge.
My love and adoration for you has to re-emerge.
Numbness has to go; it is a promise.
I have to suffer separation; there is no choice.
To be happy, is my right.
Sad will not be my plight.
Let me prepare for your reception.
Also get ready for another separation?!
We do not know, when?
But absolutely sure, there will be one!
I will pray for ‘being together’.
God knows, how much we suffer?
He will pave a way for us.
Till then, I don’t think, I must create a fuss!
