Dancing on my own

Do you remember the time
When blossomed our love?
When you waited for me,
For a cup of tea?
 
Life has changed so much
We don’t have time
For when it was not ours, it still was,
Now it is yours or it is mine
 
I know you feel alone there
Like I do here
There isn’t anyone in sight
No one to hold at night
 
But do you know what loneliness looks like?
Do you really know?
 
No, it isn’t sitting alone,
or standing in the rain.
Come to me, and let me show you
What loneliness is, what is pain
 
See around and count
The people who love you
Even when you don’t give a thing
Acceptance, appreciation is all they have
 
I have seen myself growing in numbers
When mind is in amber
Happiness doesn’t feel good
Laugh doesn’t feel right
 
It is when one’s worth
Is just as they fulfil the expectation
When colors feels all dull
When smiles feel like frustration
 
when the song once I liked, is playing on the radio but I don’t recognize
when conversation is over in a minute, once which were prized
The heart that once was is now all grey,
Still beats for you, heavy now it weigh
 
You are a summer’s day for me, bright and lovely
Music in colors, and sight in song
My soul is now damaged
Don’t see it clearly, Dreams that once were, are all gone
 
I pick up the dust of our good times as I sit on the ground
I rub it in my hands and it still smells good
Only this time, I can taste it, feel it and embrace it too
Are you around? Would you sit with me and feel it’s sound?
 
I breathe into the memories’ bag and realize there is a lot
Of me, you, us and ours. Joys were simple, smiles were many
Lets un-complicate it, Lets find out the next path
May be this time we will find love and happiness, lets give it a shot.
