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 beganto 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.
