The Way I Left

i. initiation



One word describes your fate

Novelty takes a break

How will I know you

Better?



So, what do I expect from you now?

I should have known you better

Time has come, gone

Far away you drift

Somehow

All forgotten now…



A home imagined is not enough.

Although we struggle

We get through

Somehow



You should have known me better

by now

I would have left

With no regrets

Saying it’s for the better.





ii. Salvation



Part of me wants salvation

Not illusion or desperation

I long to return, home

But who would want me back

coz I turned my back on collusion

Years ago. No regrets though

The way I left



You think you’re better

Left alone.

I am not so sure as

You’ll discover



You say you won’t forgive me.

This sordid heart

Torn apart

sees some changes.

We live apart

So very far

Nothing changes



My admiration deflates

The moment I set eyes upon you

A walk in the park

Figure out the dark

Your love escapes me





iii. Resolution



I am not sorry for what I have done

Before

Or about to do

Now

The present takes me away

Far away

Your love escapes me
