Rocking In My Arm Chair Alone
I am weak, My smile has faded. I cannot get up easily And hug my children, Wishing them a good day. My knees shake, I need a helping hand To get up on my feet. I just sit here on my arm-chair Rocking away to your memories! Sometimes, I forget where I am. Sometimes I don't realize I am alive. Someone or the other has to shake me awake, Reminding me, I'm here to stay. My eye-sight is no longer strong But I still keep looking at your pictures. We were smiling in them, we were happy... We were together in them Sometimes, memories of that day haunts me. And I see myself in black. Everyone around me is in black And I realize you're gone And I am alone. Today, on our anniversary. I have nobody to take me to your grave. Our daughter has grown, She is away. Our son is married He has not called me since decades... I wish I could get up I want to come to you and tell you, I love you. But I am weak, I sit still... Closing my eyes, trying to blink my tears away. I then feel your breath ...
