Alone in the dark

Author: Shakeel Phullan

That day when we were gathered

Under the shadow tree

Recalling the memories of our life

With happiness and joys

I always remember that special day

When you hold my right hand

With a cute smile on your face

And explained your dreams

The promises to live happily

You never wanted to put me through hardships

And always stayed alert to console me

When I was depressed

You accompanied me in every step

To have the potential to be strong

The day is always remembered

When the darkness fell and captured me

You tried to remove the darkness

Darkness, which snatched our dreams

And separated us from each other

Happiness turned into sadness

When I was left alone in the dark

The dark which doesn’t have any dawn

I have missed my lovely supporter

Alone and helpless without you

Come back, I miss you

I love you, and feel you

And darkness captured me

Return back to me with lights

I always await your company
