As this summer looms over us
with time slipping away like sand.
Your eyes have started narrating the stories you will
re play once your absence engulfs you.
Your words melt away in your mouth
yet your eyes burn with emotions
you wish to surrender but can't.
The word 'last' tastes bitter and
we gulp it like a medicine meant to save us from regrets.
With a sad smile you ask
will time part us or will we part with time ?
And all I do now is gift you silence
Someday you & I will be in different timezones.
You will talk about me in past tense.
And in that moment i'll exist in your present.
People may leave but their memories know how to stay.
Memories know no timezones.
And maybe that's enough for now ?
Somewhere in a parallel universe, you and I will still exist.
You will be laughing at my silliness and
I will be just standing there smiling like a fool I am sometimes.
And maybe that'll be enough?
