Someday.

“Someday… Somewhere… When we’ll meet again.”

Someday,

Somewhere,

When our paths will cross,

Everything around us will become still.

And my love for you may remain the same.

But.. this time, it wouldn’t be so easy.

You wouldn’t see any regret in my eyes,

And yours will speak a lot for themselves.

You wouldn’t be able to look at me the way you used to,

As you’d still have the guilt in your eyes,

For letting me go, without any closure.

You’d want to have a conversation with me,

Because you’d still have a lot to say.

You may want me to understand everything

But.. this time, I wouldn’t be the one who’d make an effort to do so.

I’d see, if you’ve changed in all these years,

If you’ve gathered the courage to say anything,

But you’ll just look away with the same guilt in your eyes.

And as I’d walk past you, you’d want me to stop.

But, just that wouldn’t be enough. Right?

And then you’d reach out to me, calling out my name,

Your voice shaking and struggling, to make a noise.

And finally I’d hear you say, ‘Don’t go’.

I would try not to go weak at the knees,

Not this time.

And I’ll walk away.

Or maybe,

I’ll stay?

Yet again,

This time I wouldn’t be the one who’d be struggling,

For I would have nothing to say.

Only someday,

When our paths will cross…

…Again.
