After You

You left in me a different shade of me.
When I was what I used to be,
You let me hatch the way I was
The way I wanted to be …
In the secret within the vicinity of the house,
Ignored and unperturbed.
You accepted me and in turn I accepted myself
In the dark monsoons, heaving drops of water,
Freezing and incessant.


You left in me a different shade of me.
And now what I am which I never was,
A secret …
An acceptance…
A little more I imagined of your self
A more of a little than I thought I will ever have.
A farce that became force,
When I found, I kept quiet for the fear of loss.
When I understood, was too late for the doubts have overflowed.
And as pennies have grown into dollars
I cried for you as you had gone before I proved my worth.
I cried coz I never thought that I could have ever thought that.

Oh you .. Oh you …
Yes I am talking to you.
You have made me met myself after you.
And I lost myself again after you.
