A Heart Attack! ! ! Poem by Saravana Kumar

Every day in my diary, i write a thing or two about you,
i don't see you anymore, still you somehow make it through,
everything that happened is still so fresh in my mind,
though it is painful, i can't leave these memories behind.

I still remember the way i used to play with your hair,
and friends watching used to say 'What a beautiful pair',
the way we used to run around holding our hand on streets,
the way we used to dance in nightclubs listening to beats.

Everything seemed fine, until one day i tried to be over smart,
i never thought that my prank could forever break my heart,
it was April 1st and i asked my friend to make you fool,
by saying 'tell her I'm dead and that would be so cool'.

Thinking it was true, you ran with tears filling your eyes,
i was waiting at home, thinking of giving you a surprise,
when you never turned up, i thought of ending this game,
i called to your number and life never remained the same.

Your servant answered the phone saying you were hit by a truck,
as u crossed the road, beneath those wheels you got stuck,
as i ran to the hospital, i saw you lying on the bed in ICU,
doctors were saying it is hard for you to make it through.

My body started to shiver as many fears crept into my head,
Oh Lord! Please take my soul away and leave her instead,
it was my mistake and she has got nothing to do with it,
don't take her away from me and be a reason for our split.

As i sat next to her, with a smile she said you are my life,
no matter how many times I'm born, I'll always be your wife,
it's time for me to go, but don't you cry thinking about me,
I'm always with you and someday again in heaven we will see.

As i kissed her forehead, i could see her closing her eyes,
her soul was leaving her body and entering into the skies,
i could do nothing than watch my angel being taken back,
now every beat of my broken heart seems like 'A heart attack.'
