Waiting For Decade

I'm a crying soul,
Who is waiting for decade, for you to return!
Don't know where have you gone?
I often cry for hours holding the railing of my balcony,
As I'm living only in your memories
With solitary arms and dry lips;
Sans your love.
I often bring bunch of roses for you,
But everytime it gets wilted.

Daily evening I sit at my balcony;
And watches the cataract, highlands and wood
While harking blended notes. (Birds - Song)
This wood always reminds me of yours.
As I saunter here, I sense your hand is holding my hand so often.
The soreness of exodus breaks me everyday,
Hankering for your hugs and your kisses.

All dreams and promises are vanishing,
I had never thought we would depart for so long.
These saline liquids are unstoppable,
Seems like soon my eyes would ran out of tears.
But I'll not relinquish,
Because you are the only one I love.

And I accept as true,
That one day you will definitely arrive;
Running all the way down the highlands and this wood
with the tears of joy to become my bride.

The poets of now a days think every first post is an acrostic... SO nice to see it.. you are very, very talented, I hope you FLOURISH among the community. Augustus,,, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
