And just like that, it’s three years since,
I can no longer wish you, on your special day;
A gazillion moments through the year, without your presence,
I knew not, I would be faced with such a day!
Driving a mustang convertible, under the grey clouds,
You would have loved the freeing feeling, as wind blew your hair;
I dare the dour sky, to let out a drizzle or even pour,
To match the tears trickling down my cheeks, without care!
It’s very tough, to lose someone who raised you,
When they are no more, is when you realize the depth of your love;
Tiny sacrifices they made, so that you could see life’s happy hue,
Nostalgia sets in, as you wish they were in your now!
I now need to settle, for our conversations in my mind,
Your voice faint and fading, from what seems like a distant past;
Some mornings I wake up anxious, that I haven’t called you in a while,
Only to relive losing you forever, when I thought our time would last!
Suddenly one day, I hear a voice in the crowds, it sounds so like you,
Or view a silhouette, my face turns ashen, as if it had seen your ghost;
I console myself, that it’s my mind playing tricks, to my rue,
And I go on with my life, missing you in my moments that matter most!
We take for granted, what precious time we have,
We run behind laurels, wealth and ambition to achieve;
Make your top priority, those that you unconditionally love,
For time once lost, will only leave you with regrets and grief!
