If only...one last time

Wrote after talking with a colleague of mine. Funny how we take things for granted...especially our parents.We think that they will be around forever...and there would be lot of time to make up for all the time lost...sometimes, we dont get that chance...



If only I could just hug you, one last time..
Never let go, my pillar, my eternal shine.

Listen to all you had to say, now dug deep down, unsaid,
Eat, laugh, smile, like that child, pampered, well fed.

Sit with you, take a walk with you mom,
One futile attempt to make up to you as a son.

Ma, its a lot more vacant, a whole lot bigger,
For without you, I feel so little and this world, meaner, bitter.

If only I could ma,hug you, never let go...One last time
