Departure
You've gone before me Alighting too fast From this life's journey. My world around has changed, The void your absence created Grows bigger and bigger day by day. Every day I force myself To unplug myself from your thoughts, But in vain. Each moment brings memories.. So vivid, so deep, so clear Flooding my heart, my mind and all around. Often I feel solace When I try to find your silent smile, And an approving nod In the silent space of my mind. With your usual gesture saying, You don't worry, I'll manage.
