In mornings like these...
when it rains
I think of you
and of all the tears that
I had given you
and of all the promises I
did but failed to make them come true
and of all the pictures of
yours that I borrowed from you and told u I shall keep them with me forever
which now lies somewhere deleted in the trash folder of my laptop
and of that black dress
which I had planned to gift you
and of the mango shake
which we shared, the last time we had met
and of the way I keep
hearing stories about you being in pain because I walked out of your life
and of the self
justification I keep giving myself for that action knowing that its all a lie
and of how my messaging
this other girl makes me feel like a sinner from inside
and of how with you, my
ability to love someone purely has also ended
and of how you might be
somewhere crying
and of how deep within
me-- knowing that --- somewhere I am dying.
In mornings like these...
when it rains
I feel like sharing it
when water would drop on your skin
I feel like touching it
when water would soak from your hair
I feel like smelling it
from the softness of your lips
I feel like playing with
it by playing with you
I feel like crying
realizing that I can't do any of this now
In mornings like these...
I find myself closer to
life
I find myself cribbing
more
I find myself playing a
bluff to my own heart
I find myself not being
able to focus on anything much
I find myself thinking
about a time that never really existed
I find myself drenching
I find myself as a joke -
smiling on the unexplained depression that I live with
I find myself trying to
light up a cigratte
I find myself not
admitting that I miss you
I find myself confused
again , just as I had always been
I find myself hating you
and myself.

All this is so touching.....I can see love, hate, pain, regret and memories in this poem....Very beautifully penned poem....
it's something with terrible beauty, it's heart wrenching...what more can i say?
In mornings like this..
when it rains
I wonder if it makes you smile
as it used to once
I wonder if it reminds you of a time
that used to me ours
I wonder if i mean anything to you
as I used to be once
In mornings like this
when it rains
I know I have loved
never to love again...
i am so touched after reading this..
you write very well.
Good work!!
