When you are GONE

When you are gone, i know not life

Doomed to remain your unwed wife

The magic that you once invoked

The nightmares change the dreams you showed---

       Like a raw nerve sliced by a knife.

The zeal for life just got erased

Moment you stepped into the blaze

Sealed with your thoughts, am all alone--

       When you are gone...

The full moon lits the path unknown

To the place where we both belong

Together beyond life and death

I am coming....just keep the faith

The deathly waves carry me on---

         When you are gone....
