Deserting Companions

Because of you
My old companions have left me.

First Loneliness moved out;
It got jealous
When it found out you were here.

Then Sorrow was disappointed
Because it saw me laughing with Joy.

And now Pain won't follow me anymore;
You scared it off
When you told me you love me.

  1. What an amazing poem which says so much in so few words and with the Mystic Bent...Several levels are alive here so vivid and effective.

    Yet I can follow all you are saying so well from my own experience.

    How glad to see you here at last! While I'm on a break...will come as possible...Plz don't leave us again unless absolutely necessary.

    You've been missed, dear Marzieh!
