One of my very first duet partners has also become one of my most faithful and loving friends. She is on my bucket list to meet in person some day! I love you Shruti. I doubt there is anyone who hasn’t visited her blog but if you haven’t then what are you waiting for? A Shade Of Pen
Written by Shruti and HastyWords

I miss you lately
That magical smile
Stopped appearing
And each new day
Loses its clarity as
It’s being swallowed
By your absence
I never realized
When and how
You suddenly became
The reason for my smile
Today, as I sit alone
The heart feels empty
Bereft of the love
That made it alive
You moved on
And I wonder, hope
If you ever miss me
I fell into a trap
Dwelling on you, and I
Can’t let go because
You held goodbye hostage
Selfishly keeping part of me
Do you ever
Think of the promises we made?
Does it ever occur to you
That I still wait
At the end of the lanes
Broken and hurt, foolish heart
Hopes
One day, we may go back
To the olden times again
Do you care
That I get angry sometimes
That you could walk away
Throw it all away so easily
Does she comfort you
Understand you
Motivate and inspire you
What did I ever see in you
The heart alternates in
Shades of love and hate
Bitter memories and broken words
Crush the beautiful harmony of my heart
Nothing will again be the same
I will curse your heart…
In this cursed game

this piece could have been pulled right out of my mind and heart. it is true – alternating between love and hate – and still holding on when the mind is clearly saying let him go. this is an amazing piece of work. thank you both for creating it.
