Just For Now

Just for now, you said
Just this once
Trusted friendship to be not broken
I did allow you, for you

Just that time, you wanted no one
No one, not me, first
Connotations in your voice
I should have noticed

Just then you said, it was alright
Bright, eternal, were your eyes
Your last words to me, too
With that silent scream unheard

Why did you quit, my friend?
Why so suddenly?
Leaving me feeling guilty
Forever long, forever

Life must have been gray
Else you wouldn't have lost hope
Life must have been hard
Else you would have still been here

Now, as I sit, writing this
I am heartless, yes
Since no tear is shed
For you, for you my friend

Right now, your absence
Makes no impact
For just like you then
Am here, without me, all alone

Just for now, I have said
Just this once....
And trusting me, this time
All left, leaving me alone

You never thought of me
As you took your last breath
Well, friend, here I am
Going to reach you soon

As I think of you
Pain caresses me
Yes, here I come
Make place for me ...
