You Were Not Really Mine

Arindam Moulick

There wasn't anything to tell you
That I'd always believed you cared.
There have been so many things unsaid.
I needed you to be by my side,
And to say that to you
Was still my humble dread!
But yet you chose to say goodbye.
I thought hard about it all,
As I thought . . . just why?
I wish I could hope to bring about a change
In this stressful life of mine,
So I wanted you to help me out
From this just one last time.
But you chose to go away,
And it seems that you haven't thought
To come to see my way.
You've left me alone in the wilderness of time.
Since then, I could do nothing,
Even as I hardly had felt
That you were not really mine.

Missed Chance

Arindam Moulick

I waited and waited
For that moment to come by
To tell you: I love you.
But, it never came.
Fool I was to just let go of you
And portray my love lame!

Later it seemed impossible for me,
As those moments of my love
Never saw me again,
To tell you my lost words
And have you back again.

I wanted you.
I still want you.
I still feel the need for you.
Almost like an obsessive vow.
Thoroughly love-smitten.
I yearn for you yet again, and how.
