She Is Like Me

She is like me

She loves travelling by train the most

Seating by the window

She puts on the EarPods

And enjoys her playlist.

She says she can travel time

Like our imagination of a time machine

During some journey 

She travels to her childhood

Where she feels more love and humanity

Builds her belief in good people.

On another day she travels to her first love

And unknowingly her lips smile

The memories are so fresh 

She says these memories haunt her initially 

but time heals everything and everyone…

In some journeys, she travels to a fantasy world

A world of her creation

Where she is the happiest

Her eyes smile

The satisfied face glows with golden sun rays. 

During her journey, she keeps on playing music

As if music is the only loyal partner

But, On some day she says music also betrays…

sometimes a song in the playlist

Gives her goosebumps

At once it was her favourite song filled with promises and romance for someone…

Now as the person is no more with her

She finds herself in a dilemma

Whether to listen or skip that song

And she decides to listen to it

She says time heals and everything and everyone.
