Bhawana Shrestha

No matter how much time has passed, no matter how you managed to forget every single memory, there comes a moment, a time, an event that brings back how you felt.

In the room full of known and unknown faces, my eyes always wandered in search for you, but yours never did.

The moment you came in, I was poisoned with the love you could not afford to offer. Now here I am, left with all the hurt, anger, and resentment.

My heart does not ache for you anymore, but it still waits for you to notice me.
