Goodbye

I never got a chance to say goodbye
Nobody told me it was the last time

I hope they held your hand with love
And let your soul find peace like a flight of dove

I hope when death came it whispered softly to you,
Dear, forget all your worries - let's fly away into the blue

Now you are the sun that shines too bright to light up all the corners of the room
You are the star that sparkles the most in the sky, overshadowing the moon

Now you are the rain that feeds the flowers, bringing life again 
You are the wind that lingers by us, reminding us that you are still close by

So, 
Farwell to you
But not to the memories 
Farwell to you 
But not to the love you showered 

Farwell for now.                                             - Mrinalini Lohia
