You were there, Crying When You were Supposed to be in the Light You were there, Begging When You were Supposed to Give away.
I saw you, behind the Door Trying hard to hold that nth last Tear and Howl Silently. ..Your unspoken question to God Why? He left you with a Broken Heart Why? He never let you have the Perfect life That resided like a Parasite in your Mind Distorting you between Real & Apocrypha world.
and you walked out Silently with a vague Smile with no one to notice you You heard the girl say, "Look How Pathetically she is dressed!" You heard your Guardian whisper, "She is a total waste!" They watched you march boldly ahead, When you were weak and afraid inside, Ready to break down any moment again..
Life has treated you all the wrong way, They Threw Stones, When You wanted Roses They Stabbed you, When You wanted a Hug Breaking every ounce of you
But they never broke the Real you because they never really got to know the person you are within. They made you everything that you never wanted to be, But everything You should be.. ..You are more than what Life has thrown at you Somewhere Between.. The Broken Dreams The Broken Heart The Broken Hope Lies a Brave Heart. Ready to ride the Bumpy Ride
Because... I see the Tear in those eyes, but I also see the POWER TO HEAL IN THEM
There was camera those days, Moments & Memories that we could have captured, But we didn't.
We laughed. We Smiled. We Broke the rules. We Had you scream at your lungs We even argued with you.
There you went. With a Smile leaving behind the prints of you We now Cry at those funny moment At those broken rules. Wishing we could have saved your Shouts.
It was ordinary Teacher-Student Relation. But there was something Special. You were more than that. You shared the big pain with us. You shared the small Laugh with us. The WORDS you used Made me search up the dictionary.
You were more than the title that Principal Seat gave you You were our Guardian. You were our Guide. The hand that held us through our Dark times. Like the Single Flame of the Candle You Enlightened us all
and now here we are gathered in your memory Talking about the moments Some Whispering a silent cry Some cursing themselves that they could have not argued Some regretting the wasted time which could have build into something more beautiful
Oh! How I wish, I could have stored those moment in the Camera. But then again, the prints of those moments were much better saved in our Heart
It's hard to believe What we missed in that fraction of second when we blinked and now with your ashes ready to start it's journey through the river I forgot to tell you, You were my Hero and My Mentor....
