Fare Forward Friend Poem by Bipin Patsani

Being with you gave me
Some finest moments in my life.
Honestly speaking,
you had been to me everything
one wants, so complete,
so accomplished in all sense,
my poetic fire and aesthetic delight.
Yes, my love, being with you
gave me the feeling, as if
the quintessence of my culture,
everything sweet and sublime
life can so gracefully offer
like the old numbers of your choice
and the blessing of my lord are all
in my palm with its eternal charm.

I still don't believe,
swearing in the name of our Lord
you could betray my trust,
you could do it to me for some other.

Now that you are gone,
the moments we shared,
those blissful moments
would always remain in me,
in my memory as the most precious
andcherished moments in my life
to keep in tune the song divine.

No, not as the sword of Democles,
the gift of your love,
that you loved me once
will continue to reassure me
of your warm presence and hold
in my breath, in my blood.

So, not farewell dear, fare forward
and be bold.
Adieu.
