From the Past

My first job was that of a content writer. Writing about different subjects under the sun, I knew this was what I wanted to do. No matter my job was out of the league (not an engineer, neither a doc, nor an MBA), I found my niche. This job gave me the flexibility to explore my creative side too. The poem below is one that i wrote almost two years ago and I did receive some good reviews. Thought I'd share with you too.

Were You Genuine?
Sometimes, things are not the same as they are portrayed...

Never had I known, would our paths cross again,
Meeting you, I realized you are still the same,
I thought I'd be walking the path alone,
But with you by my side, I always feel at home,
I want you in my life,
Just like a desert needs the rain,
Like an answer to my prayer,
I knew, I could turn to you,
You told me you'll always be there.

Whatever I felt, whatever I wanted to share,
I found myself secure in your unfeigned care,
I had so much to tell, so much to ask,
But then I found we were slowly drifting apart,
A feeling that rent my heart,
I thought we would be like this forever,
But you made me realize this was just a dream,
You left, leaving my questions unanswered,
Now all I can ask is - 'Were You Genuine?'
