Incomplete Parting Song...

Life

Life's just a big fat photo album. 
You get to click some, you miss to click some.
You are in some, but you miss someone in some.

But whats the rush, can snap for sure next time right..?
Guess what, there is no next time, there is no tomorrow.
They were there only yesterday, not today, not tomorrow.

But then they were there always..
Right from when you first saw the world..
They have to be there always right..? 
Coz they were always there for you.

They found joy in giving so for nothing in return,
Did you ever care to ask how they were doing..?
You missed what really mattered, stuff doesn’t matter.

You cry your heart out struggling to say goodbye 
Long for a second chance for one last long embrace.
One glimpse to say Thank You.   
Would’ve, could’ve, should’ve - regret cuts like a knife.. 

You wish their effervescent self was there for ever
But they’ve already flown leaving you orphaned.. 
Leaving a billion frames in your heart to cherish..
But you will never get to snap those..
And that hurts in every waking moment.

They are right there when you close your eyes,
But sad they are only visible so.. so invisible.. 
They fade away soon you open your eyes..
Better click every frame while you have them around.
Coz like some one sang, the good ones die young. 
Life is just a big fat photo album, that’s it.


In loving memory of my beautiful beautiful Chitta who left on 11/21/2022.
​Will miss you till my last breath Chitta
