And your footprints
leaving behind the impression
of my unrequited yearnings,
and though your existence disappeared
yet your lingering thoughts never left me,
and as I tried tiptoeing away from you,
your smiling visage reminiscing the vivid memories
stirring those emotions
deep in my soul
like an unforgettable hum,
itching me,
teasing me,
coaxing me,
forcing me,
to find my universe
in a smear of your lost yore
