When You Are Not With Me

by Parthap Ratim Banerjee

All are escapists
One by one all of my friends
Decided to leave me'but do you know

When you are not with me
Then only you stay maximum time
I walk and I feel you too
Are all along walking with me

I go to bazaar
I buy all those items you normally like
Though I know you are not with me now
More surprisingly you cook for me, tell me how

I talk to myself
I get answers from you
I sit for food you sat too
I do what ever I need to do
You watch all silently too

So, now for everything
In my gossip, my talk, my story,
My song and even in my poetry
I keep you always with me

You stay whole day
So long I am not sleeping
But you only come in my sleep
When I am dreaming

You are escapist, I am lonely
You have left but I am.......
