i buried you


once meaningful 
makes no sense now
the laughter shared
turn now into nightmares
the memories - once happy
haunt me now.
finding answers makes no sense now
yet, often, I find myself -
sitting alone and wondering - why? 

the happy chapter -
why did it have to end
why the said words 
became nothing but lies?


bit by bit, I had let go of you
and you returned back to me -
like the dust,
rising with the wind
making the eyes water
and I could do nothing,
as you continued to be.

then,
it hurt the most to see -
that you had moved on;
you never realized,
the wrong you did
and I,
I waited for a sorry - 
hoped to forgive and reconcile. 

finally I made a choice
and,
buried you 
deep inside the dark corners of the mind
yet, you still find a way
to come back -
and haunt me...
remind me of how naive I am
how easy to trust and to be betrayed
you come back -
each time to cause more pain
and humiliation.
