LOVE Poem: What You Got By Losing Me?, by Puneet Maity

A few pieces of love,
today I picked from the garden of my heart
Some dreams that I had threaded for you
Today I will pick up the pieces of those dreams
from your path

This heart is sad because of your departure
I’m keeping eye on the road, maybe you will come
You are away for some reason but no relationship
is special even after being close

When the strings of hearts are connected then
there is no feeling of distance

They said they would die if I didn’t meet you
Letting my love go to ashes today

Why did you come into my life, you ask?
I’m still there now
You came to leave

I took all your pain to my chest
I treated every sorrow of yours as mine
Still you are angry with me
Don’t trust me

It is possible that you may forget me
But I will remember the ink on your pages
Everything that bothered you
And, you added it to my name
I will remember everything

You have the right to leave whenever you want
Your love will always reside in my heart
I’m sad that you considered me unfaithful
You always considered me a stranger in your heart

What have we not done to keep this flame burning forever?
You created darkness, you did not let the lamp of love burn

You will remember me, when you will be lonely
Think again, what you got by losing me?
