You remain in me

The end is seldom the end,
It just merges in forever.

And you remain.

In the pain that gnaws at peaceful sleep,
The promises of tomorrow that we didn't keep,
In the melted kohl that smudges the eyes,
You remain in me.

You remain in me
like the darkness that doesn't budge,
even after the lies of love;
the forgotten song, the unfinished poem,
in the tears that's not wiped may be!
The un-born dream and the unheard scream;


You remain in me.
