I Will Miss You, My Friend! Poem by Deependra Kumar Jha

At a new place among unknown faces,
with unsure destiny
I came into your world,
with thousands of dreams in eyes
I recall my endless queries,
that gave you countless hassles
Now, as you set to go away,
I ask myself,
didn't I know you since eternity?

We laughed together in every success,
& cried together during failure
To help realize my dreams,
you didn't get enough sleep, for sure!
Thanks for all the wonderful memories,
should I have asked for more?

For that you are aiming higher,
I don't know if my best wishes help you
But, with new ambition & enthusiasm,
I too have great expectations from you

This place is no longer new to me,
but people! they are still the same,
& so are my dreams!
I wish, you will find someone like yourself,
I will miss you, my dear friend,
as you are so special to me, by all means!
