Hard To Say Goodbye
Fifteen months have passed since I lost My
Pretty Lotus forever,
As I stand by my window, I recall events that
give me a shiver.
The doctors telling me you that won't be with
us for much long,
I tried hiding this bad news but you guessed it
like an old song.
The whole world began looking grim and
colours began to fade,
I felt like that fish out of the water wanting to
go back to its glade.
My Pretty Lotus was slowly fading away I
couldn't do any thing,
All my tender loving care couldn't diminish
your internal sting.
The blooming rose tried her best to resist the
will of nature to live,
The ailment increased and the treatment
couldn't make her live.
The shining sun was slowly fading and the
time was running out,
I began praying daily for good news but began
to lose my bout.
My beloved who was once very bubbly had
given all her hopes,
Our family life was soon to end thus I had
never seen the ropes.
We had plans to celebrate our golden wedding
anniversary soon,
But her sudden departure brought disaster
and spoilt all our boon.
She is no more but all her golden memories
still linger in my mind,
I have lost my most precious treasure there's
no other of that kind.
In my ears, I can still hear those sweet voices
and melodious song,
It is hard to say goodbye to my love that was
half a century long.
She Would Return Tomorrow
I was told that time was the healer of all pain,
After a long draught there comes some rain.
She is gone my life is ruined with no heal in
sight,
I still feel all lonely and have no strength to
fight.
Every day I try to wake up to see that new day,
I try to hear her voice but don’t know what
they say.
Each morning is harder than the one that is
new,
My pillow is soaked with tears like the
morning dew.
With positive stance, we could beat the coming
danger,
But we knew that was no small feat got a lot
stranger.
All our genuine efforts were many and meant
much more,
We didn’t know death would come knocking at
our door.
Our fight with the fate was getting harder and
harder,
We prayed hard to spend a lot more time
together.
All our daily activities seemed to be lined with
gold,
We kept talking of our future plans and
growing old.
We were told that miracles do happen at
times,
We were told to have faith in our prayer lines.
We thought that we were winning for sure,
She’d be with me always with the right cure.
Alas! That did not happen and she was gone,
I was left alone and all my pleasure has gone.
Lakhan is now full of sadness, pain and
sorrow,
But our Jayden says that his Nani would come
tomorrow.

To the world you may be just one person but to
me you have been the world.
I Do Love You
I definitely find it truly selfish to want her
back again,
I could not calm her mind, I could not ease
her pain;
I thought my love was enough to keep her here
with me;
But now I know for certain that was never
going to be.
I loved her, liked her, sometimes we argued we
hissed,
Her face, her touch, her scent forever would be
missed.
To hold her in my arms again, my soul no
longer lost;
I'd pay the price and gladly have no worry to
the cost.
They say that life gets better and time will ease
the pain;
They cannot see the truth, it never was right
and sane.
No daytime and no night time just hour on
hour on hour;
Time has no more meaning now life's not
sweet it's sour.
I thought I had my wife in my life forever to
love and play,
If I had one I know she passed away that
dreadful day;
Sometimes I know I hurt her, I know that was
so true;
Please forgive me for those wrongs for I do
love you.

I had never imagined my life without you but
now that it is, I am devastated.
