Freedom Poem by Shruti Goswami

When shall you return? I am waiting..
Endlessly .. listlessly..
Life .. for me .. has stopped…
I am frozen … I froze the time too..
So that .. I wouldn’t miss you..
It is different .. that you do not..
Never looked back.. never a glance..
What could I do? I’m in a trance…
Break it ..O sorcerer..
Can’t you let me free?
What joy does it give you…
To let me not be me?
Oh when will you come! … fear not .. In glee ..
I would not bind you .. I‘d not entreat to be free…
