Departure

For the one last time we hugged
Whilst tears rolled down our cheeks,
Our heart longs no departure 
Neither choices leave us free.

We were to depart, no spells could hault
For time alone hath come for us.
We walk meters apart only to turn back
For the final embrace, I could feel; hearts sobbing as we embrace firmly.

Our tears could perform no blessings
Neither do our hearts, we let time alone perform all its duties we cannot offend.
We wave our hands bye,heart sings no farewell.

I walk down the road, so does the tears walk down my cheeks I cannot hold,
I turn back, caught her walking up
The road to her winsome hemlet.

On the lofty road side she stood, 
I could see her waving her hands at me,
For one last moment, I got to see her
Then the distance made us blind,
I hope that was not the forever farewell.

The faster we walk, wider the distance grew,
Our smiles bring less charms
And our laughters remained unheard,
Then comes the inner distance with the lapse of time.

Our promises wanted no more shelters in our heart,
It began to walk out and gradually fades away,
Our voices became unheard of which the song of our relationship remain unknown.

Like in a dreams we dwelled 
Not so certain about our promises 
And so was our commitments insecure,
She was true because fate matters
And it isn't our own makings.
