As Years Pass By

~ Joyce Mary J ~ 36 Comments 
As years pass by,
I wonder if would ever see anyone to whom I said goodbye,
All my friends from my childhood,
And the people who lived in my neighborhood.


The teachers who taught me the right from wrong,
My first crush with whom I never got along,
The people who encouraged me to dance and paint,
The grandma next door who told the story of a saint.


As years pass by,
I wonder to how many people I have said goodbye,
The people who once I thought that I could not live without,
Now, sometimes I think what was that about?


As years pass by,
I wonder how fast the time flies by,
If I could ever walk back my life,
I would never miss a chance to say a proper goodbye even though we had a strife.

When I Hear Your Name…

~ Joyce Mary J ~ 26 Comments 
When I hear your name,
My heart skips a beat.
When I hear your name,
My brain clouds and my body stops.
When I hear your name,
I stand still but my whole world spins.
When I hear your name,
I smile even if it hurts.
When I hear your name,
Everything about you comes alive.
Tell me why does it happen,
When I hear your name?
