Where were you?
When I cried out your name,
and heard not even my own echo…
Where were you?
When I walked in haste and bewildered among the crowds;
every face bearing your likeness, and yet
YOU were no where to be found…
Where were you?
When a single kind word uttered through your sweet lips,
was the only remedy to my ill faded affliction…
Where were you?
When lost in thought and lost in time,
I watched days slip into nights and nights into days;
as I stared through the window of my memories!
Burned and broken, void of all pride;
a fetus, crouched in a corner of an empty room;
I took refuge in the womb of your silence…
Where were you?
Where were you?
Where were you?
…
My incubation, pain and sorrow;
my gestation, mourning and regret…
A seedling of change,
I was reborn,
an orphan!!!
