Yes, you are not here anymore,
but your memories are.
I can still see you smiling with teeth being shown,
and in the imagination, you will forever be my own.
Where you look at me with those playful eyes,
and we will still be sharing the same skies.
Where you are walking with me in peace,
with no disruptions and with comfort and ease.
Yes, you are not here anymore,
but your memories are.
I wish to hear about your struggles again,
and feel that vulnerability that made you complain.
I will sit beside you and listen with no interruption,
and we will never need another introduction.
I want you to laugh this time with positivity and hope,
With full of life, without any discomfort in scope.
Yes, you are not here anymore,
But your memories are.
Will take few car rides in this monsoon,
and long walks under the sky with full Moon.
It’s your presence that lit up my mood,
no matter what I do, you thought is never an intruder.
With a slight touch, you hold my hands,
Even in silence, my feelings that you understand.
I wish to be forever by your side,
If nothing, just enough to be your spirit guide.
Yes, you are not here anymore,
But your memories are.
