I Am Ashamed Of Your Absence Poem by Piyush Dey

In the night moonlit and the
the sweet breeze breezing by,
I take this pen and start to think of you,
I try to write something but the
words just don't, my sorrow! , come up
from my colourful ink, the white paper which
lays in front of me laughs at me,
I greet it with my tears and some
more moments of delay and ponder,
and at last-
I get up and leave everything at one
side, I close my eyes, i feel
the cool embrace of the wind
going by and breathe deep and i feel
that it wasn't the poetry that i was
missing -it was you and your presence,
And suddenly, i am remimded of the
songs which i had for once written for you,
i try to sing them aloud, but- the words
just don't come out of my voice,
the moon and the stars laugh at me and
i feel ashamed, my dear, maybe-
It weren't the songs that i was
missing, -it was you and your presence,
Do you know, my heart? that-
I feel ashamed of your absence,
And i feel shy to call you back,
maybe someday you shall come back-
If i am so much ashamed of your
absence.
