The Day You Left

The Day You Left

A Poem by Saumya
"

"just an imagination"

"
I still remember that first 'hey!'
The one,
That came from you
Smiling my way

I still remember those days,
Days, that kept us
Together each day.

I still remember those giggles,
Those laughters,
Those talks,
And those grins
That made our days.

Days, months,
And years came,
and went our way.

Oh, how beautiful,
Oh, how blissful,
Oh, how bright
were those days!

I smiled,
Smiled ,like I never smiled
Before those days.
You giggled,
Giggled, like you've never known
Sadness anyway.

Days turned longer,
Longer enough to end
Nights lasted
As if it couldn't wait
To bring days
To an end.

You said,
You wouldn't leave,
No matter
What came in our way.
I smiled with a nod
Wishing the same those days.

But you,
You, were the first,
First to leave that day.
Unbothered to explain,
Unbothered to know
What could even happen
After that day.

I still forgive you
For your departure,
Like I often did,
When you teased me
those days.

But this one's real,
Real in many ways
I'll still wait for you
Will wait for you,
Now and always..

But what hurts for now,
Isn't why you left,
But why'd you
Give a reason,
That was unacceptable
And is unacceptable even today?

The day you left,
Was the day I wept,
Wept, sobbed incessantly
as a kid
Deeply hurt & left astray

You may be back,
Back, someday
That day may come,
Or maybe it doesn't anyway.

But the day you left,
Still hurts so bad,
Hurts bad,
Like a frightening ghost,
That won't ever
stay off my way.

Well I wonder could it be
When I was dreaming 'bout you baby
You were dreaming of me
Call me crazy, call me blind
To still be suffering is stupid after all of this time

Did I lose my love to someone better
And does she love you like I do
I do, you know I really really do

Well hey
So much I need to say
Been lonely since the day
The day you went away
So sad but true
For me there's only you
Been crying since the day
The day you went away

I remember date and time
September twenty second
Sunday twenty five after nine
In the doorway with your case
No longer shouting at each other
There were tears on our faces

And we were letting go of something special
Something we'll never have again
I know, I guess I really really know

The day you went away
The day you went away

Why do we never know what we've got 'til it's gone
How could I carry on
The day you went away
Cause I've been missing you so much I have to say
Been crying since the day
The day you went away

The day you went away
The day you went away

when i read your poem i got the same emotion when i listen to this song

Lol..Thankyou :)
I'm glad you found it evocative.
This seems to happen a lot. I can only assume, people grow and move on. The bond you thought so strong, wasn't. At some point you'll do it yourself. That's my thoughts anyway. I maybe wrong.

For this not being a personal incident it is done very well and if you did not reveal that in the Author's note, I would have felt that it was. Very well done and very clear and easy to understand and feel.

Well expressed dear. Starting from the first hey to the departure. I could feel what you portrayed in this creative writing- since you've mentioned this as just your imagination.

Even though this isn't based on a personal experience you penned it so clearly as one that anyone can relate to. People often enter our lives. Some stay a while and others depart. The ones that stay are lifelong companions/friends and generally people who see you through hardships. Those who seem to fade away and not really offer much are best forgotten.

Thankyou Michael :) glad you could relate.
This is good specially knowing that you based this out purely on fiction and imaginative feeling alone. What more if it is from your realistic view. Great write! Powerful.
