An ode to Shivali and Vinay

A loss makes you realise the importance of the value. when they stood alongside me i took it for granted and now when they are gone, the momories are so precious. The irony of life escapes me...how can people who make everything around them horrible live a long happy life and beautiful people who touch our hearts and change our lives leave so suddenly. the hollowness i feel is nothing compared to their families and loved ones. just an aquintance and yet moving on seems impossible as i stand and look back at all the oppurtunites i wasted in letting them know that they were special.

maybe god needed them a little more than their parents did. I hope you both rest in peace and knew that you were loved b everyone you touched on you way to heaven...


we wear black,we mourn
smiles empty, eyes dazed we worn
the emptiness, the sorrow
yet we know there will be tomorrow

you left and now we grasp thin air
wondering when life will be fair?
all of 21 and dead
before you began, we review your life that was led

the smiles are gone, never to be seen
memories leave our heart heavy, eyes gleem
your words spoken, the kind thoughts
i think, i remember, i miss them a lot

didn't realise your value when you stood amongst us
i let the oppurtunity rust
but you left no stone unturned, no corner out of reach
to live by your example, is what i seek

now it feels the world has stopped, nothing is right
yet tomorrow ill wake up hopeful and bright
the vision that haunts will become a passing memory
the time will come when ill be back in tune with lifes melody

but you touched some hearts, never forget
ive learned my lesson, ill never regret
know what to value when its dust
don't wait till it shines in the sky, we must...
