A Departure's Painful Sting



As he departs from sight, a void unfilled,

Words, like gentle raindrops, you instilled.

Even when love's arrow pierced my heart's wall,

Desolation echoed in every breath's call.


Yet, your gift was a world of words and hue,

A sanctuary that within me grew.

I've witnessed this departure, a thousand times told,

Bodies turned to ashes, stories of old.


Today, it's different, a sorrow so vast,

For it's you, turning to ash at last.

Brother, why did you leave so soon,

Could you not stay beneath the moon?


You could have lived, not just for me,

But for the mother, you see,

She endured life's relentless strife,

Your promise, her reason for life.


Was your karma to the divine supreme,

More important than her lifelong dream?

Hey, death, a senseless jest you play,

Ignoring pleas, taking him away.


A widow's hope, her only thread,

Snatched by you, as you sped.

Oh, death, you heartless clown,

Leaving sorrow and despair all around.
