Abandoned

And we're walking past a road and you see me getting tired.
I stop for a while, it's not like I'd retire--
--Well, someday, for sure, but just not yet,
You saw me stop, you didn't wait. 

You started walking faster and saw her then.
She came in her car and swept you off, I saw, and it hurt, that abandonment.
I continued to walk, on the same path,
Without any salt, wanting the best for you.
I wanted you to be happy and I walked ahead, wanting to see you smile, soon.
I got tired walking all that while, my body was shivering.

 I was all alone, and my voice was quivering.

 I stopped, I couldn't walk anymore, I didn't retire still,
I just sat there on the road, again,
Hoping that you will --
Find happiness.
A while after my teary eyes, clouded with the mist of sulk,
Saw a face similar to yours, tired and worn out in bulk.
As it came closer, I recognized the face, but the soul I knew, Was fading away.
You said that the car ran out of fuel, and she went along with another Samuel.
And left you alone, amongst the debris in the heat with junk and nothing but short term regrets,
That's when you remembered It was I, that gave you the last glass of water I had,

 while she had 3,

gave you half, and saved the rest, (for herself) 

And now that she's gone and you finally see, She wasn't as much as you thought I could be, 

and now you realize and meet me half way,

 But I am numb, so dumbfounded, I can't say--
I cannot talk for my throat is dry, and there's a limit to how much one can try,

 but just then I see a Bus stop by,

 and one person is all it can occupy.
Technically it was my call,

 there was someone who informed them about my fall, 

They sent help for a troubled dame,
And when asked "for whom", I took your name,
I sent you off, with tears in your eyes,
Not in mine,
For I was at a loss--
Of water and words, and feelings too
It's worse for I saw you leave that way,
Even though, you knew, it could accommodate two.
