Why did you do this to Aryan and to me
Just yesterday we were one happy family
Then almost suddenly
God decided that you had leave us and flee
Neither He nor you seemed to care
That without you
Our hearth and home would be bare
Why were you in such a mighty hurry
To abandon our young son and me
You left, behind, for us, just the key
To the remains of your inert body
I looked into little Aryan's eyes
To comfort him as he silently cries
He knows not that you are gone forever
He weeps because you do not answer
I tell him that you have become a star
And that you will always watch over us, from afar
(a poem dedicated to a young colleague who lost her husband last week)
