Walking down the lane of memories, <br />I heard the sounds of your footsteps. <br /> <br />I lost myself in them, <br />As those are the ones that I longed for. <br /> <br />In the still night of darkness, <br />You come searching for me. <br /> <br />Why did you love me so much <br />To leave me in a whirlpool of pain? <br /> <br />You have again thrown me into the dark <br />And left me forever. <br /> <br />Where have you gone to hide, <br />Making it impossible to reach you? <br /> <br />Now, these paths and lanes we travelled together <br />Instill a deep fear in my heart. <br /> <br />How can I walk them alone <br />Without having your safe company? <br /> <br />I heard many footsteps but never heard yours <br />You will not come, this I know in my heart. <br /> <br />I can't help but wait once more for you, <br />For that day when you will come and claim me.<br /><br />Rinshi Ansari<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/memory-lane-31/
