Death Of A Beloved Poem by Minu Jaiswal

Death Of A Beloved



'Your' presence is so unforgettable,
'You' are still on my mind,
I know it’s all just my fault
Because of me he is also suffering
I made all suffer
The pain is just so unbearable
I couldn't have even imagined a life without 'You'
But I don't know how- I'm still on earth, alive- without 'You'.
Everything is fresh in front of me.
The day when you went
You had so many wishes,
And I kept delaying them all!
You said I would realize when 'You' will leave.
And I didn't give a damn to it.
But it was then, when I had you with me.
Today You aren't there,
And I have realized
What you meant.
When you said:
'Distance makes the heart go fonder'
I didn't know you would move to a place I couldn't look for you!
You just left without any further notice.
Without even informing,
If you told before hand,
We could have spent more time together,
I could have gathered more memories
I remember when you gave me advices,
I never paid attention,
But you were always truly valued.
And you still stand a position in my life
And that too a much respected one.
I have lost you
And I miss you so much
There's nothing that can lessen my pain,
There's nothing that can pull me out of grief,
There's nothing that can stop me from mourning.
Cause you were really very dear to me.
Your absence kills me.
I keep crying all day long,
Your memories walk past me.
And I wish I could just hold them,
So that they couldn't leave,
Like you left forever!
