Without Her Poem by Jaipal Singh

Sometimes, life takes a such twist and turn
It moves ahead and you are left far behind
Perhaps to make you learn a lesson or two
Or to live in regret and repentance all time.

I still remember the moment, I saw her in life
As if the heart had stopped beating
As if I had forgotten my breathing
A case of camaraderie and love at first sight.

She was around for a reasonable time
Yet I remained ignorant till the final goodbye
If a relationship is for togetherness and belonging
Or for the love, longing, absence and loss in time.

Unaware then, the day I lose her
I shall lose the worth and relevance of life
Transfixed, I watched her walking away
Perhaps never to meet again in lifetime.
