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.
