It was a sunny day

I was in my grandma's house to stay

There, she gave me some sweets to eat

Which I devoured with pleasure

I started feeling bored and

Made an excuse to bid her a bye

How would I know the bye I bid

Was the last indeed

The next morning, I woke up early with my mom’s cry

Tension rose as my heart froze -something tells me

I knew the why

We rushed towards the hospital

Falsing my inside voice telling me, her health was critical

Alas, my prediction verified

There I saw my grandma lying in bed

She was lifeless, and a cool breeze found its way into my heart

Her soul wasn’t there; something inside me fell apart

Flowing rivers from eyes, we went to Pashupati

Touched her leg a final time, such a tragedy

Blurry, teary eyes saw her body being cremated

Towards heaven, her soul departed

I then entered her room one day

Whispered Grandma Are you there?

No answers, just pure silence

Then I cried witha heart full of regret

Regret of not being there more

Regret of not telling how much I love her

cause I won’t be able to do it anymore…
