There And Not There Poem by Nosheen Irfan

There And Not There

Rating: 4.0


There's night, there's day
And there's the emptiness in between
There's an insatiable hunger
That cuts into the soul
Within the hole, lives a part of me
That cries for you, loud and deep
You pretend to not hear
The voice that seeks you
You are there, and not there
As in a dream, I touch you
And you don't feel my hand
So are you and me
Each in their own space
I toil through the day's strain
I suffer through the night's bane
My wounds burst open each day
My dream never sails into the bay
You pretend to not see
The heart that pumps for you
You are there, and not there.

I toil through the day's madness I suffer through the night's eternity My wounds burst open each day Love hurts and it hurts deeply.............. I strongly feel the pangs of love.... when it drifted apart to a distance too far! Another gripping write!
