And then I died

And then I died
I dies not because
there was no air to breathe
or no water to drink
I died because of your absence
because you were not here
with me in life
may be dying was just
your absence from life

Ah Love! how do I live
in this void without you
in this vast land and seas
without a speck to hold
in this gloomy cloudy day
without a sun to guide
In this thorny existence
with no fragrance to live
ah just thorns without rose

I held a flower once
and petals began to fall
one by one all petals down
the same happened
from every branch
from every stem of Rose
from every stem of Lilly
I kept waiting for the time
when the whole flower will drop

The leaves turned yellow
and crumbled to the ground
the stems lost flowers
but they never fell as whole
I waited the whole winter
and hoping for spring
Love, spring has come
spring has come a new
flowers still don't beckon

hence I am dead
flower doesn't come to me
only falling petals
of a love that I lived
only fleeting fragrance
from this wind that blows
only the depressed waves
of ocean we walked once
and hence I died
