Going away

Few days of love

Few days of care

Never did I knew

In my face will they stare

Every little talk

And walks we could not walk

Birds singularly watched

Fears were all bare

Wish I could shelter

Made your life better

You’ere eager to sever tether 

Leaving all with no care

Now sometimes I just think

Look at clouds without a blink

Thoughts flowing without a kink

Life calmed after a flare

Manjari

Adieu

Blessing in letting go !

Don't think I will know

You went away a little farther

Every time you bid Adieu 

Ambers will cool slowly

Steady will be beating heart

Not the pain for cowardly

Takes time to feel apart

Heart cries less each separation

Breathing has gotten better

Smoothness at each serration

Pain felt subsides later

Feeling of doom gone

Future no longer bleak

Ready to sing new song

The cracks no longer creak

Can't leap memories' mound

Fog of thoughts harsh, not kind

Go on, don't let the past hound

You left nothing here behind

May you too find joy abound

In future that you find

Don't rewind, I may not be around

No ropes to keep me bind 

Manjari

Appeal

Fate has gravity binding us

Since I keep falling towards You

Others tugging me to resist the fall

But somehow this union seems True

This is coming together of minds

There are issues, I am not blind

I know they won't be gone with time

Though what we have is so sublime

And then you get so confused 

Can't breathe with passion suffused

Continue to push me away from you

Why the ties don't break,I have no clue

Sending me away at reason slightest

Facing the stormy seas at best

My heart though churns at your behest

Draining my soul of all it's zest

Though I must share with you this feel

My emotions are beginning to congeal

Disconnection is trying to set itself in

This may be, my very last appeal

Don't set my sail for far away

For once I am gone, I may not sway

My beating heart wants it's say

Whether you agree with me or nay

You may try to find me now and then

Thinking may be 'am waiting at bay

There may be beckoning spring near you

My absence will be there, forever to stay

Bound by Death

-- these thoughts are just few words reflecting feelings (being abondonwd by their father) of someone I knew well , who passed away..

Was I a gift given to you

Or were you brought to me,

This question will haunt me,

till eternity. 

Why did my presence

Not halt your indiscretions,

Mired my life with strife 

deter you not from decisions.

I heard that you thought of us

I heard that you cared

I also heard, when Maa died

You felt no despair

There was no effort anytime

To reach out to us;

Busy with new things to do,

We'ere our of focus. 

Strongly did we live our lives

I think I should boast,

Like a twining flowering bloom

Without a pillar or post

Today I breathed my last breath

And see from where I stand

What did not happen in our lives 

In death we joined hands.
