Promise of love

This is a poem that asks questions to a lover who yearns for her splendour.

I do remember.
I yearned for
Your splendour.
You were my notion,
You were my light
My love you were
My only cure
I used your name
In unlighted sights
I do remember
While travelling one night
I stopped at a place
High on heights
Stars above me
bright moon light
Ignoring it all
Praising your absence
I was lost in your love.
A moment came
I was questioned
Something that cannot be asked.
They asked me for a reply
What would I say?
Blind I was
I had no answer
And Again and again
they proved me wrong.
I started to question
The promises you made
I believed in your words
That were completely false
I came to a conclusion
You were not wrong
It was my fault,
I should have been right
Now I will be alone
I'll believe in peace
I'll believe in life
I don't need you
You controlled my mind
I should have known
I was so blind.
But not anymore!
I won't let you come again
I have closed the doors
I feel free now
I feel my soul
I promise you one thing
I won't yearn anymore.
