I have to Go Now

I have to go now,


I do not really know how,


Time has erected a wall,


Making us both like Adam and Eve fall.


 

So distant you seem to me,


So selfish you have turned lately,


As the certain lizard changes its colour,


You have appeared in a new avatar.


 

I have dreamt of stopping time in abundant situations,


Like Miss Havisham of Great Expectations,


And treated you as a Queen,


Oh God! In utter foolishness I have been!


 

Better late than never,


I have perceived your real character,


I thank God,


For saving me from a fraud!


 

Much have I tolerated,


Much have I been disappointed,


I have to go now,

 

Yes, I have to go now.
