Toast of My Life

At one point you were the toast of my life,
We were to live together, together we were to die.
But as it happens, life took you away from life,
It felt my arteries were getting sliced off by a knife.

And then you moved on somewhere,
Only sometimes I called your number.
You had made new pals there,
Me, You forgot to remember.
But I can’t really blame you,
You were scaling new highs.
And I felt jealous and lonely,
As I fought just so as to survive.

But now, you want me back in your life,
But now, I have a few problems.
But now may not be the right time,
But now that you insist, I will tell them. 

You see, I had to find someone else,
When you were not present here.
Who could never replace you of course,
But at least they were near.
At least, they could see my eyes shining in happiness, 
At least, they could feel when they were moist with tears. 
At least, they wished me good nights,
At least, they comforted me during my nightmares.

So when you came back,
There was nothing left vacant.
There’s only so much space in my heart,
You got a little late, now it’s already been taken.

I don’t know what went wrong and when,
Ours was a friendship which no one could rip.
We always had each others back then,
They said, we were joint from hip.

So many times I remember those days,
When we used to spend every moment together.
I wish I knew it that time,
These fleeting moments won’t last forever.
