Reliving Again

In the memory of grandmother

Yesterday, unbidden tears poured from my eyes,

in a small droplet, I saw your reflection.

Since then, I have been thinking about you.

I remembered your benevolence,

A light touch of yours hand on my head has made me wiser.

Your forgiveness of my immorality,

has taught me to always fill your heart with love.

You looked beautiful when you wear a red woolen sweater and untie your long hair.

Sometimes walking together through the pathways,

You talked about life,

And looked me with your black shining eyes

as if you wanted to communicate with my eyes,

I used to sleep in your lap,

and listen stories from you,

There wasn’t a single day you didn’t sing for me,

Your song used to heal my misery,

I have never felt so loved before.

But

Today no one is there to knead my hair,

and listen to my uncanny tales,

Today, in this evening ,

The wind is blowing towards the window,

And calling you.

Do you remember?

Those tall trees under where we used to sleep,

They too are craving us to be there with them at this moment,

I feel nostalgic, when I see your brown scarf hanging on my room,

So, I recall those times when you used to sit near the balcony,

letting the soft breeze play with your hair,

Our grey cat wails sometimes,

looking at your picture on the wall,

The birds keep coming,

near the window and murmur something,

only you and I know.

When I feel like the world is turning upside down,

I listen to your recordings and gaze the sky.

Come home dearly,

The home doesn't feel life home,

without You.
