Sacrifice
"And sold", it was announced
And he softly wept
There was nothing left
That was so precious
She gently walked away
But she wiped his eyes
One last time, she spoke
"Darling why do you cry!
When it is me who is being sacrificed
It is me who pays the price
For your every act of honour.
Darling why do you cry!
This isn't new to me
And I had always known.
Don't come back for my ashes
As you wouldn't find them
I am no more flesh and blood
I am pain that would reside in you
Ain't that glorious!
Darling please don't cry."

Breaking bad
No I wasn't the bad influence
As I was happy with just coffee
While you wanted beer
And I was just about fine
With just a little walk
Some rusty talk
And leaning onto you
But you were all into
Addictive adventure
No I wasn't the sinner
As I always prayed
As I always cried
And always tried
In silence and out loud
On your face
Almost outraged
But I just learned
To like the other side
The one that made more sense
To you and then me
No I'm not a bad influence
I just drifted
Discovering more
Exploring more
With you
As there wasn't much
That would let us
Just be ourselves
No I never would be
Just a bad influence
You will learn someday
My side of the story.

19.19 pm
There u were...
right beside me
for about a minute
But it wasn't the same
An unusual window in between
I saw you...
Checking your phone.
For a moment I thought
You were looking for me
May be I was wrong
But there I was right beside you
Looking at you
And suddenly it felt so heavy
Then the lights flickered
And we were moving together
And then you took a left
The road you used to take
to come see me
A scream gathered within
And I thought I'll call...
but my voice choked
I saw you leave
One more time
just like old times
In the rear view.
Completely unaware
You took a left
I finally checked my phone
It was Tuesday 19.19

Whatever happened in between
I still remember the days when we were just acquaintances. And from the very first days we were so hell bent on pushing each other away. We don't have to make efforts any more.
