Where He Went.

Where He Went.

A Poem by Terry Collett

Where he has gone 

you do not know. 


It has been some days now 

and you have 

no answer though. 


Each morning you hope 

for news of him, 

some clue. 


But nothing comes to you. 


You miss him being there, 

his presence when someone 

enters the room, 

not him. 


You look out the window 

at the places he sat, 

nothing of him there, 

but you continue to stare. 


Each time the door opens 

or the phone rings, 

you think he has returned 

or someone with news 

comes and brings. 


Nothing but that loss within. 


That emptiness. 


You remember that last kiss, 

that final embrace. 


All you are left with 

after all that time 

is the memory 

of his face

Yea people confuse why people stop thinking though world knows how much both adored each other. God will never forget whom they seek him. Even a devotee will never forget god's name and his love though in deep sleep. She always admires his style and love in his for me. It's just acceptance how or whether she loved him.

This life beared so many men but ultimate love was with my god where I didn't commit with any other though I treated same everyone.

A mother cannot show bias to her multiple kids. But her love to husband goes only to him only.

Sorry sir if I hav not obeyed your order or not listened gurus who dumped me in kichad mud but still I rose with Lotus flower taking in pure love from The mud water only a water and nutrients.

I love you yaerid. Could you point your fingers to yourself hav you done justification to me??

My strength is you my life force is you my reason for my birth is you.


Hope I am ready to cut my jar if you feel I hav been giving same for everyone.

I loved you so much still you are being biased for no reason what is that love when it is grabbed from everyone even not giving that love to his only love because everyone else loved him but he had loved me.


Missing you
Jessy Jacob

Holding a child in her lap for hours is not painful
Giving milk to my son when he is hungry wherever everyone says why you are making yourself to get milk prepared for her kid that is in the midnight where everyone in deep sleep. I know my son is hungry I can't keep him starve.

I couldn't sleep many time for continuous 4 days maybe for study or taking care of my son missing my husband who is staying away from me due to few people or even solving world reason. I know how much he worries even if I go into deep sleep he just makes sure I am breathing not just left the body in helping him from enemies.

I am glad I could make him realise my love even without giving our bodies loving

Jessy Jacob.
Just in name only it's that power how many exams or puzzles we need to solve it shows he is with me.

Hello! It's not so uncommon for people to disappear, even if they love you.... they could be hiding deep dark secrets that might necessitate their leave....it's heartbreaking for the one left behind, and often untraceable.... you describe this scene extremely well ....to not know know is frightening....
Warmly, B
