Lonesomeness Poem by Ami Joshi

Once,
He met her,
Met in the starlight,
With faded night...

Talking,
Swinging,
Laughing,
Dreaming of togetherness...

She took
His dark nights,
His nights of sadness,
To make
It beat,
With her beats...

To kill his agony,
His agony,
With,
Her happiness...

Now,
She lives,
Lives with his memories,
In a sigh -
Calls his name...

No one,
To hear,
To swing,
To listen,
To talk,
To laugh...

Saw
the
shadows of
Loneliness...

Sang,
songs
of their love,
With the
Sun,
Moon,
Stars,
In the faded
Starlight night...

Lonesomeness...
