You're Still With Me (Sonnet) Poem by Dipankar Sadhukhan

Who says you've left? Who dares to speak that lie?
You're still the moon that shines above my night.
I see your face in every star-lit sky,
And feel your presence glowing soft and bright.

You're still the rose that blossoms in my chest,
Its scent and color never fade away.
Your beauty keeps my weary mind at rest,
And brings me peace at the end of each day.

When summer's heat has drained me to the bone,
You fall like rain to cool my aching head.
Your voice returns to make me feel less alone,
And lifts me up when I'm half full of dread.

You never left—your love is living proof,
Breathing new life beneath my broken roof.
