Oh dear, my darling

Posted on by Shreya Joshi Posted in PoetryTagged , , ,

Oh dear, my darling,
Where are we heading?
Cause I feel so lost,
Like the leaves of Autumn.
 
Oh dear, my darling,
I miss us talking,
All day and all night long,
But those days are now gone.
 
Oh dear, my darling,
Am I just overthinking?
Or we really drifting away?
Now life seems so grey.
 
Oh dear, my darling,
I remember me fighting…
Being your clingy girlfriend,
All your time, I demanded.
 
Oh dear, my darling,
I just stopped trying.
I got tired of fighting,
I got tired of demanding.
 
Oh dear, my darling,
Whole day I keep reminiscing,
How wonderful we were,
Colorful dreams we dreamt.
 
Oh dear, my darling,
All your Good Mornings,
Now seems like a favor,
Just cause you pity me.
 
Oh dear, my darling,
What’s up with us lately?
Our conversations dry and formal,
It’s like a business meeting.
 
Oh dear, my darling,
Now I hate us talking.
It’s a dreadful reminder,
Telling me, we’re dying.
 
Oh dear, my darling,
Let’s have a chat once again.
Not to tick off the to-do list,
Not as a formality.

    There are times when love takes a break and questions arise to value the relationship. You go inside to find answers. Your poem perfectly describes that state of uncertainty that always appears when love is deep.
    A good afternoon for you

        For Chile (South America) we remain in quarantine. Then I am home. It only remains to take care of us because we have many infected.
        What city do you live in? Are you taking care of yourself?

        The other side of the world. I’m glad to hear that you’re taking care of yourself. It’s early morning there. Here 5:40 in the afternoon. A sweet awakening for you.
