In memory of "Baa"

 Baa,

 a smile so powerful that enlightened the face of many

the charm and the words of reflection, still dazzling me.

Naïve I was, miniscule of memories

Yet it flows, heaving my heart with grieving melodies.

 

The storm, neither the dark shook us,

As you stood tall, the roots we held it, robust

It was all green and colors, the winters and summers

Hands on hands, the empire you built looked upon.

 

Like a wave running back to the sea,

As how, every little breathe has to be

Years fleeting . But Voices still crack and eyes still wet

A hollow in our heart, never to be filled .

 

Echoes fade and poor memories trying to recollect

Towards the end, A stab rewinding again and again.

Apology and remorse , reflecting in my dreams

Desiring a glimpse of you, the forever unseen

 

At your usual bliss, with my thoughts, you are never alone

Long sigh, you are here, I see. Yet, you are long gone!!

You are here, Yet, you are long gone.
