This is something i wrote long time ago, in my ' lonely abroad days'. I rediscovered it suddenly shuffling pages of my old diary. My eyes are still moist!
In this train
that goes somewhere
I am going nowhere
reaching nowhere
Without you
There is no journey
I am travelling towards a big void
I came from somewhere
to reach nowhere
It seems my life is
just standstill
It is just same morning
That I don't want to wake up to
I don't have your loving embrace
to refresh me
I have no one
Here, in this 'abroad'
To share, to care
This long distance love
based on emails
and occasional minute calls
I live only in these moments
your words ,
news from home.
I see shubham in your words
I am hugging him through your words
My son far away
from my bosom,
from my embrace
I am just a far distant voice
for him in a mobile phone
I see his childhood growing
in my husband's emails
