It now seems long that I had to live, <br />For so long with only a heart to give, <br />for it was you who came and took it away, <br />And left me in hope to hear what touy say. <br />It now seems long that I lived on, <br />Lonely as ever, for night and morn. <br />My empty heart filling up with hope. <br />To hear the words you never spoke. <br />it now seems long that I didn't give in, <br />I carried the spark deep within, <br />The spark of hope, I wouldn't throw away, <br />To hear the words I want you to say. <br />It now seems long that I did indeed wait, <br />Only to realize that its my ill fate, <br />That you will not come back, and I have no hope, <br />Of hearing the words you never spoke. <br />Oh Beloved, won't you come back soon? <br />Here I am, waiting for you, morning, night and noon. <br />Please come and tell me the words I want you to say, <br />Please come and stay, and don't go away........<br /><br />Roshni Menon<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/it-now-seems-long/
