FOR HER SAKE
The empty feeling here is making me very
tired
I feel all alone and lonely but more than
retired
At night I lay in bed staring at that cruel
ceiling
It looks like a wide screen shows all past
feeling
I sit up when you are part of that loving
moment
I begin to call but you do not make any
comment
I go to sleep with these fond memories in
my eyes
I long to have that dream that give me
the old ties
Dreams are just dreams far from your
presence
They can't heal my suffering but act as
penance
I yearn to stroll hand in hand in our back
yard
Gaze at the stars and the moon with your
card
The card that you gave me when I turned
seventy
That was the most precious gift out of
the plenty
When the moon is up the whole sky then
weeps
Tears flood my thoughts then the heart
sleeps
I am left to imagine your touch that gave
me joy
All is so gentle, loving and kind like a
child's toy
I never expected this to happen not in my
dream
Prince charming is not part of peach and
cream
It was your sweetest smile that melted
my heart
The strong feeling was ingrained in me
from start
Whatever can be the reason for me to
feel this way
I know that strong feeling grows stronger
everyday
All the year I have been praying to grant
you bliss
Every now and then I dream but that too
is amiss
I'm badly wounded and can't ever heal my
senses
Your passing away broke me into
thousand pieces
No one has any clue of the pain I've been
through
It's hard to guess the sleepless night I did
accrue
Darling you've left me with all these
heartaches
Friends see me smiling but can't feel my
aches
I can't just surrender the pain and let
things go
To ease and cease the misery I need to
go slow
My happiness means seeing you happy
and gay
Let me say this once more I love you
everyday

he take
Saroj knows well that I can live well for
her sake.
