Hand in Hand (Poetry)

                          Hand in Hand

This poem was shared by Niyati Agrawal

Standing on my doorstep

Waiting for you to come

You pass me by

You didn’t even see me there

 

I thought that you would be busy

So I turned to go inside

That’s when I saw you with her

I hadn’t seen you like that before

 

Walking hand in hand

With her and kicking the sand

Flashing your best smile

You both walked a mile

 

I was happy because you were

Didn’t know it would pain so much

To smile when you’re around

When I knew it would never be us

 

You would never know that

The songs I write were for you

You are in my heart and mind

But I would do just fine

 

When I see you (bridge)

 

Walking hand in hand

With her and kicking the sand

Flashing your best smile

You both walked a mile

 

I cry in the night

The dreams clouded by the sight

Of you with her

But I know I won’t be fine

 

It’s just that I can’t cope anymore

Because something wasn’t right

I changed my thoughts

And it changed the sight

 

Now it’s us (bridge)

 

Walking hand in hand

You and me kicking the sand

Flashing your best smile

We both walked a mile.
