Bye and Bye

For the friends we chose to have but never chose to leave.

INTRODUCTION

This is a dedication that will never reach the intended audience.

It is inspired by the loss of close souls of mine which I lost to death. Before their departure they told me to wait for them to come and visit me. I waited until I received the bad news about their deaths. My last words to them were not the last words I had to say to them. But even with that so, death did its part and got us apart.

Bye and Bye

The rain came, with dark clouds upon the sky

Then the winds blew; sky's now blue

Hard was the ice, cold as hell

Hot got the heat, ice is now water

Darkness dominated; till light shed its brightening brighter brightness

Away went time, flew like it's on jets

Memories remain; bodies of buddies, but their souls are no more Now present is pain, but present was happiness then.

Absent is Your presence now

This tears my heart, so are my eyes in tears

Scars are still fresh wounds; time heals but the mind never forgets

Love we shared, for one another we cared

Nothing changed, you left but they still exist; my feelings for you.

You left me right here waiting, means I'll be coming as you aren't

You dosed off, so I'll continue my daily dose in your absence

You went, and so sorrows came

Thinking of you is now my hobby, but it hurts

Days are long, nights are longer and I am short of you

Our time together was shorter

I need you more than I miss you

Days go by and by, and you never come by.

I cannot say goodbye; I never meant to see you go by

CLOSURE

We cannot choose our relatives and biological family but we can choose who to befriend and it is a real pleasure when the friends we choose be the friends that also choose us. For that, such friends we hold dear and near. To those friends we be close even when not next to, until when we are torn asunder even if it was not up to us to decide. Many things can asunder close soul but nothing can tear apart the unbreakable bonds of close souls.

This writing is dedicated to the ones we chose to have and never chose to lose buy yet lost.
