Earlier when I had taken ill,
You cared, and I knew you will,
You came to see me with your stetho,
Cared much more than you treated,
The care and love it had gotten,
I wished ill I remained,
Ill am again,
To see me, you didn’t remain,
Even the info you got was just casual,
Asked How are u, to be cordial,
Could not reply in pain,
Wish my heart stopped forever,
Not to be ill again.
