Where were you?

Some abstract talk,
a joke, some doubt,
a celebration, moments of success,
peaks of merry,
the glad feeling of discussing facts,
talking about future,
laughing at the past-
Those were “joys of life”,
should be relived…
But do I really want to..?

When the corner of my eye overflowed- Where were you?
When my heart sang a melancholy- Where were you?
When my mind was restless- Where were you?
When my hands trembled with fear and I did not know what to do- Where were you?

Where were you when I needed you the most?
When I was happy, I held your hands and laughed together,
But when I cried, where was your shoulder..?

I didn’t have a wall to lean on when I was shook,
Tell me…
Why should I sit with you for a talk?
Why should I look back at you?
Why?
Why should I rewind?
Always?!
Where is My Life?

I don’t need you,
I don’t…
But just answer this,
“Where were you?”
