147. WHAT HAS BECOME OF ME


Have I become so insignificant in your life
that I seem to have ceased to exist
except when you are in need
of someone to do your
bidding such as to
clean your mess
or heat the
kitchen?

Have I become invisible to you that
you could just pass me by with no
hello or how have you been
except when you desire
to have your house
cleaned or else
when you're
hungry?

Have I become nothingness to you that
you could just say or do as you wish
without thinking of how I'd feel
when you talk about me and
my shortcomings as if I am
just the wind, no form
no breath that you
can feel?

My heart is screaming to be heard
My body is aching to be touched
My mind is reeling with anger
My soul is yearning to go
If you don't want me
around any more
Just give me
a sign

And I will go....

146. A LONG WAIT


It must have been the longest wait
A wait that no clock can measure
A wait till the Twelfth of Never
My wait for you

You left without saying goodbye
No notes nor mails to read
But the traces you left
abound

Seems like yesterday that I heard
the sounds of your laughter
the footsteps you made
the sighs of relief

Yet you're not with me any more
You're no longer here by me
No more loving hugs
No more kisses

All that's left of you are memories
that keep filling my thoughts
and questions on why
it had to be you

If only I could rewind the scenes
If only I could re-live my life
I'd have lived it with you
like each day's the last

Wherever you are or wherever you may be
Don't take away these memories
They're all I have to keep
in this long long wait
