In tears I write this The memories of you give bliss These tears of mine They say different things At different times When your face comes up in my mind Which is like only every other time I have tears of regret I cannot tell you all the things I planned to tell you the next time we planned to meet “So much gist I have for you” I told myself. Wait till I see him There are tears of frustration Why can’t I turn back the hands of time? Why can’t I reverse the clock and change everything and make it alright Just the way it was before 3pm on Sunday June 3. I rage with tears of anger My country! We have lost so much… Simply because we don’t care! Poor plane, late rescuers, Oh my nation! I weep with tears of sorrow I’ll never see you again I’ll never see you smile I’ll never hear you laugh I’ll never hold your hand again I’ll take harsh words of criticism from you…just to hear your voice Amidst all I hear my tears should be of hope What hope? Today I am hopeless No promise of a future –I am despondent What is the future without you? A bleak promise of more despair and loneliness I’d rather live in the past In the future – you won’t be there This present took you away from me The past I’ll always love because you were in it Somehow I manage tears of joy As I think happily You left this cold cruel world You are free You are safe You are with HIM He knows He sees So when I cry and my tears flow I am sitting in my moments.. .any of them Your memory will never fade My tears will never end. |
