Love without Posession

In this life, many people I met,
Some stayed with me and some left.
I loved some without any regret
Hated some with full respect

Some came close to my heart,
Those are the one I never forget,
I tried to fill their life with happiness,
But still they left me with vast emptiness.

No matter what, people leave you alone,
You love them and still they are gone,
No matter how hard you try,
It does not matter how much you cry.

Some people can never come back,
Be it the life or the death,
Though you keep staring at their track,
Hoping to see them, you wait holding breath.

You miss them throughout you life,
Although, remembering them, is your right.
Still it pains, like sharp piercing knife,
You can never forget them, which is your plight.

When you remember, those who are gone,
You know, they loved you, like no one can do,
There place in your heart can be replaced by none,
I keep thinking, why they never stopped and had to go.

Sometimes it’s better to let the emotion flow
And keep your loved ones in heart and still let them go.
