RELATIONSHIP Poem: Yearning Evanescent Embrace, by Ananya Sharma

How do I stop these tears
bleeding through my soul,
dripping off like dewdrop
from the extent of heights we reached
only to end up alone.

Waited for you forever
but you never showed up
when love turned to resentment,
flabbergasted that you didn’t exist anymore.

Only if I could relive
for this sorrow knows no bounds,
though I’d still choose you again
no matter the immense pain to endure
just to be with you anew.

Could we be together
even if we’re not together
for amatory doesn’t last forever,
would there be a peaceful Nirvana
where this ardor would remain eternal?
