Ombre

Ombre
I miss you in the most strangest of ways…like a faraway song…

like lyrics of a folklore….

….an Indian tale around a fire ring

like a dark deep forest which I have always passed by, never lingering

I miss you like the sound of a waterfall

Like a dream that flitted through

Like a tear drop which got caught in my lashes

Like a smile that caught me unawares

I miss you like I never knew you

Like you are a stranger passing through my life.

And….

as the rain drops trickle down the windshield and become one,

as the snow flakes pass by the windowpanes and melt as they touch the earth,

as the wind untangles my tresses and veil my face….

as my mind holds back the heart and then…. lets it go….

as your thoughts dance around in my mind and become a dream as my eyes close

I miss you even more…..

like I never knew you,

like you are a stranger passing through my life
