Dear Departed….

Cold as ice she now lays

In memories only is she alive

Time and again we remember her ways

She was the strength and our reason to survive….

Slowly and steadily the flames engulf her physical being

Taking away bit after bit the humane touch left

The world is so open now there is no shielding

Vulnerable is the heart so prone to hurt and theft

I know She would be hurting seeing her flesh and bone suffer

I know her she would not like her children cry

But does she know we now do not know any after

We are only living in the before cannot have the guts to say goodbye…

The days move forward and people move on

What about the handful melancholy hearts left behind

They say that you need to get over and be strong

Only the memories happy and regretful remain in our mind…

Dearest departed and beloved soul

This is a eulogy I could write at best for you

Even if I use the entire thesaurus or literature on the whole

There wouldn’t be enough to describe what it means to lose you…

But stay still my precious one

Hide away forever in my memory

I will join you a day will come

Will then narrate and tell you in detail my story….BSK
