Adieu,

It was the last day of school,
All were happy, exams finally come to end
A few sad too, for they won’t be wearing
the school uniforms anymore.

It was different for me
No tension of paper, no concern
Just a bitter thought,
How I won’t see her anymore.

All were anxious, tensed
‘bout how the questions’ goanna be.
I was depressed, thinking merely
Of how my mornings would now turn out to be?
Filled with her memories,
Will they be as sweet, as was she?
Or like a ghost,
her memories would haunt me.

When I saw her that day,
for the last time,
I felt a void within;
my mind, blank.
Blank as a new sheet of paper.
Blank as a starless sky.

I stood there, watching
As she walked away,
Maybe she slowed a bit...
Or maybe I wished it so.
The last plea of a sulking heart
maybe it’s all that it was.

She went out of sight
And I bid her farewell,
On the loss of a love
so innocent and true,
my heart cried
and the heavens cried too.
