Time flies by, as does the memories,
moments taken forgranted more numerous than breaths
each smile given, tear that had fallen,
precious, unnoticed gifts of the past.
day by day, dreams are not guaranteed,
silent prayers that should have been spoken
Tragedy, the darker lining of elation’s clouds;
combines all the ‘nevers’ and the beeps,
of all the nightmares and won’t-happen-to-me’s.
To say you’ve realised, learned, apologized
doesn’t lessen the pain of ignorance
time, irreversible knows no forgiveness
memories remain scars, remembered forever
emblazoned upon the hearts of all whom you met
