Remembrance!

They say time heals wounds, but much time has flown

A part of me has moved on, but why does the other still mourn?

Not a day does pass without thinking of her;

I laugh, I play, I enjoy; but why do I still feel sad?

Every moment I miss you….Sister, I miss you real bad!

There’s a gaping hole in my life which refuses to get filled

The cement of friends’ affections seems unable to get it sealed

Half lies & partial truth help deflect her topic, though doing so is myopic.

I laugh, I play, I enjoy; but why do I still feel sad?

Every moment I miss you….Sister, I miss you real bad!

The festivities of Rakhi & Bhai Dhuj have long lost their charm,

Birthdays are just a token exercise, without the wishes which were the most warm

The laughter, the banter, the fights have vowed not to return

I laugh, I play, I enjoy; but why do I still feel sad?

Every moment I miss you….Sister, I miss you real bad!

She lived life to the fullest, abreast of the latest fashion trends

Wherever she went, she was a favourite among her friends

She faced hardships, and battled challenges with a smile on her face

She would have fought cancer too, but with a little bit of God’s grace

Six years is a long time, how time has passed

I laugh, I play, I enjoy; but why do I still feel sad?

Every moment I miss you….Sister, I miss you real bad!
