sanjeev naik's "Farewell"

The silence talking to me
Will I finally hear it?
No more whispers even..
Is she leaving forever?
Is she all alone?
Will she come back?
Will she remember me?
Does she have a reason to?
The fight...the silence
The love...the death
This life... the pain
The sun... the eclipse
Did she share it with me?
Did she ever care?
I run to the streets..
I scream out for her
I see her going down...
I see her leaving now..
And she is gone
Before the misty morn..
The moon is sunk and gone..
Goodbye.. Farewell..
The moon will be back...
Will she?
