12. The Empty Seat

The seat right to me has been empty since you got off,

promising that you'd see me the next day..


it doesn't feel the same without you

you always sat on the right side of my seat

but now it's empty


but dust has settled on it

I dust it off


 I have kept the seat empty 

hoping that one day you'd show up 

because you missed me..


I hoped against fate, didn't I?

against what the heavens wrote for us

against every single lifetime..


I hoped with something 

my heart had written for us

what it hoped the heavens had written for us

in every single lifetime,

to find each other..

always..


I still keep the seat right to me empty..

hoping that one day,

fate would change its mind..

the heavens would re-write for us

in every single lifetime

that we'd find each other

always...

This is a real thing...

this is for the one who sat on the right side of my seat, who promised to see me the next day and got off the bus..

but now the seat has collected dust...

hopefully, you'd get on the bus again, with your iconic, identify-it-wherever-i-see, bag and the same charm you had,

when you sat on the seat right to me...

all because you missed me...

please don't make me feel like i was hoping against fate...
