Consumed by insignificance of my existence.. <br />tampered, trolled and traversed soul.. <br />withering in the silence of a numb sense... <br />and the mirror returns an empty hollow <br />of a once beheld life form! ! <br />absent from sanity <br />retributed to a silent storm <br /> <br />The memories painted by your laughter <br />hang on the wall, the bed, the kitchen, even the wardrobe... <br />your smell still hanging in the air <br />obscenely attached to the void you so meticulously crafted... <br />to the bleeding trail of your pseudo care! ! <br /> <br /> <br />the photographs devour the torrential downpour of an animated nostalgia <br />only to dismiss the existence of the truth! ! <br />once you were mine, and now you are gone! ! <br />embellished and engraved memories of our distant past.. <br />recourse my present to the same dull pain which still lasts <br />blunt and infectious! ! <br />like a rusted sword.... <br />perforating the veil of today... <br />to let the yesterday come in, again! ! <br />You are not here, <br />neither am i! ! <br />still crippled and fallen, <br />where you last left me... <br />and only the whiplash of the ruthless today <br />brings me back to life <br />just to realize... <br />your absence <br />which can never heal.... <br />and never fade.. <br />hanging by the chains of a surreptitious torment... <br />a life amok, prowled from a self inflicting hunt! ! ! <br /> <br />I do not miss you by my side <br />only those endeavors to prove myself over and over again in <br />the tests that you put up <br />to seek the loyalty and command, <br />of a helpless madman, hopelessly in love, chained... <br /> <br />All is miss is the way you made me hate me... <br />and love you more everyday! !<br /><br />Shagun Khera<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/absence-96/
