Tribute

An year later...tears dont stop!

O, dearest mine!
Where do you dwell now?
Are you shining among the stars?
Or, you bloom among the flowers?

I have seen your smiling face in the sky
Since the day, we bid you goodbye.
A tearful farewell was all we could give
Your suffering, your pain, sought refuge.

In a trance, I move about
The illusion of your being, still around.

I pick up the phone to make a call
Sadly then, I recall
Hey, you aren’t going to be there,
Who is going to soothe my despair?

No tears shall fall today;
You aren’t going to kiss them away.
No fears shall now seek comfort;
I have to be brave to combat this hurt.

As you suffered and cried in pain,
All our prayers passed in vain.
You prayed for an easy release,
We prayed, but, for a fresh lease.

He, but heard your pleas
God’s favourite you had to be!
He has you now playing in his lap
We make do only with your snap.

Every joyous moment wears thin,
Without you being here within.
Come back to us as a calming thought
Ease us of the pain that your departure brought.

O, where are you, my sweet!
Why hasn’t my heart stopped to beat?
Do you see me grieving?
You took a part of me while leaving..

together and apart ...at same time
Watching over me
and taking care
weeping and wondering
why am I here
wanting to know
waiting to hear
knowing that you'll be
ever so near
is it glory
or sadness I feel
in my heart
knowing your gone
tears me apart
wanting you back
hoping real hard
more often I'm knowing
your really not far.
