Nostalgia

Why do I lose people?!

Why it has to be me always?

Losing my people for the circumstances,

For deliberate reasons,

For distance,

For unforeseen situations.

Why it has to be me always?!

I don’t want to lose anyone anymore.

I didn’t want them to lose.

But, somehow they leave me in the midway,

Is it me or them or fate?!

Oh, destiny you are the cruelest!

I didn’t want to be this strong by losing my favourites.

I didn’t want to be this independent by losing my shelters.

I didn’t want to be this isolated by losing my happiness.

My happiness was within them,

In them.

Oh, the cruelest of all,

Destined fate, you have taken too much from me.

How will you occupy?!

How would you now compensate me?!

Everyday I die and resurrect thinking about them.

My lost ones, loved ones and favourite persons,

Memories haunts me in the dark nights.

Why don’t you believe in people anymore?! – Cause, I don’t want anyone to exploit my reason. How’s that like?!
