#SymbolicSaga

As twilight merged with noire night
Dreams opened portals to past,
From where the ephemeral moments gazed unabashed,
Bygone moments that didn't last
sublimated slowly till enshrouded in haze
As time passed, seasons flowed through us changing us, replacing the old hues with new
Breaking us apart part by part, but we survived
Hiding our tale inside sepia pockets
Of each other's memories

I still remember how our parallels longed to converge,
How they stood against every odds just to be,
How they weaved till they were finally woven...
and done, no matter how much I tried
to hold on, but moment by moment
He was drifting away,

the seasons changed
replacing the blossoms with autumn
demanding a different fabric,
Now all I see is the montage of moments
that were, and hopes of 'maybes'
I needed to concede the ends, but
hoping against hope, with
bated breath I waited to see
If love wins, to breathe life in "us"
and maybe "we" would survive,
But alas my "maybes" and "would have been" were buried alive, as
He was just like migratory birds,
A free spirit seeking sojourn in me
Till he was free to dream, to live,
He perched from nest to nest as he breathed
always free bound by his own reasons to be
And maybe one of that reason was me,
a fleeting sojourn...
