My boy, you've left me for eight months I'm searching you like in great hunt I found you in my blurry dreams Why was I not let go up-front? To live few more at fifty plus I've used up all my heartbeats pump You'd instead live more in your teens You'll hit all your aim with a jump The reason you're that I survive How should I spend my nights and days? Could I stand tall without a beam? We were together all the way Imagine how I'm lonely one A statue somehow I become No sound I heard and blank was seen I'm dumb and all of my parts numb

To my son Nanda
