It was an unsaid protocol
To wait for me!
I agree that I had taken you for granted
But, how can you leave me all of a sudden?
Where did the decades of promises go?
What happened to the stolen glances?
Why did you do this now?
How can you leave me all of a sudden?
Tired of waiting for too long, may be?
ReplyDeleteMay be :(
Deleteyou yourself told the reason..taken for granted:)
ReplyDeleteOh yes... sometimes we refuse to realise such things when someone is going away :(
DeleteLeaving all of a sudden. Probably, it must have happened gradually over a long time. We just didn't notice keenly.
ReplyDeleteYes :(
Delete... que será será ... Love, cat.
ReplyDeleteI agree :)
DeleteSome questions have no answers............................
ReplyDeleteWell said :)
DeleteOh what a plea...sometimes we never know...that causes much anguish as i can feel here...
ReplyDeleteThanks for the words Jae :)
DeleteHow we all have suffered a painful break up and possibly even saddened others too by our actions. However it is useful to have some disappointments or failures even, as part of our education in life.
ReplyDeleteVery well said...
DeleteThanks :)
There is such an emotional feel to this poem.. indeed when someone walks out unexpectedly we are left with questions unanswered. Excellent write :)

DeleteI can feel the shock in this unexpected departure. You have captured the universal feelings of disbelief and betrayal very well.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sherry :)
DeleteIt is a shock when we don't realize it is coming...the suddenness is harsh.

Or may be they cant wait for an eternity either :(
DeleteThanks for the perspective ZQ :)
The desperation is felt strongly here!
ReplyDeleteThanks CC :)
DeleteThe eternal 'Why?' and 'If only!'
ReplyDeleteAnd silence as answer...]
DeleteThanks :)
Well, it sounds like it was due time to leave. Always a shock to those that take others for granted.
ReplyDeleteAnd a lesson learnt in hard way,..
DeleteThanks Myrna :)
Perhaps they are waiting still. Great poem.
ReplyDeleteMay be... That hope keeps us going...
DeleteThanks :)
Ooo I loved this one.. Can relate so much with this..
ReplyDeleteThanks Geets :)
DeleteTaking things or someone for granted can always leave us feeling empty when they've gone. It feels so sudden, but the leaving usually does happen slowly when we're not looking. Still, knowing that doesn't make it hurt less. Great writing!
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot Torie :)

ReplyDeleteThanks Rudra :)
DeleteWhen we fail to decide things in our life, time decides and we are destined to accept it wholeheartedly !!
