Crime and Punishment

Not a day passes by, not 
thinking about you, 
believing in my love, which I 
know is true.
Waiting for you, to come back, 
with a lot of hopes, but no 
regrets, which I lack.
I sit down crying, hurting 
myself, 
praying that you will realize, my 
love, by yourself.
What did I do wrong, that you 
left me? 
Isn't there anything pure that 
you see in me? 
What happened, when you 
hugged or kissed me? 
What happened, when you 
wanted to stay by me? 
Was I not, a wall protecting you? 
If not, then tell me, where I 
screwed? 
I can change, the tides of time, 
even with blood, as I write this 
in rhymes, 
waiting, breathing, bleeding, for 
only one day, 
standing wide eyed, for a single 
ray, 
of hope, to see you return, 
and give me a chance, to show 
my concern, 
for you, and only you, whom I 
love, 
ready to even battle, the gods 
above, 
with a power, to bring heaven 
and hell as one, 
for, the only one, 
who is you, my heart, 
without whom, my life is torn 
apart.
Is this betrayal, or just a phase, 
to watch me suffer, bleed and 
phrase, 
my pain, my blood, my inner 
happiness, 
that has turned me cold, to 
numbness.
My tears have dried, crying for 
your return, 
as I have turned hollow, and 
started to burn.
Think about, the good times we 
had, 
the love, the smiles and the 
bond we shared.
There was not a single day, 
when you did not call me, 
only to hear the words, 'Love 
you honey'.
Every day, and every night, 
I hold on my phone, really tight, 
waiting for a ring, or just a 
message, 
which was my beating heart, 
and my life's passage.
What is it now, that you detest 
in me, 
that you chose, to just leave 
me? 
I am in despair, which I dont 
show out, 
for this is another battle, a war, 
a bout, 
that has brought this, sickness 
in me, 
awakening, the demon inside of 
me.
Now I stand deadly, with rage, 
transforming, even as I age.
But all through this, it does not 
conquer me, 
for there is something that lets 
me be, 
in a way, that you wanted me to 
stay, 
filled with love, and a question 
that makes me pray, 
oh god! ! Please bring her back, 
to me, my love, 
please dont punish me, with 
your wrath from above, 
and all through this.....I 
continue, to ask this question 
that would be, 
dear, 'Why did you leave me? '
