Sorry for I couldn't spare time
When u needed it the most,
Sorry I couldn't stay with you
When you deserved it the most.

Time passed by, I couldn't hold
But, now promise I will love you
Till we become fragile and old.
This body will decay
But, my soul shall stay.
We shall tread life-path Step by step
Tire you feel, I shall stop.
Holding your hands I shall move ahead.

Sorry I couldn't lighten your path
When it was dark , when the stars were off and dogs did bark.
Sorry I couldn't hug you when u felt alone
Tears kept rolling in your eyes
But it was wrongly me who stayed cool.
Today I confess I was such a great rustic and first- water fool.
Promise I shall become your shadow
Till your life.
Because you are now a friend
And not just a wife.
