A Pillar of strength was he,
Sharing in all my little moments
Of Joy, Gloom and Sorrow,
Departed one day taking away
All the sunshine of my life.
Those days, I still recall
Oh! How slowly they moved
Each second filled with his agony and pain
Unmitigated and endless it seemed
But moaned he not!
One fateful early morn,
To death, he himself surrendered
Leaving bereft two broken hearts
To face, solve and overcome
Their life in this bleak world.
Like a could in the sky
He floated, floated far away
We could only stand and stare
At the changing horizon
Muttering a sad “Goodbye.”
