Just finished filling up
a KYC form for my mother,
and as I mechanically
filled in the details,
mum nudged I had forgotten
to write
"Late"
before my grandmother's beautiful,
beautiful name.
It teared me up.
It always will.
I looked up at my mother,
and I realised that someday,
I will be adding the same prefix
before her name too.
And let me tell you -
even if
Death is inevitable,
Death is never fair.
Especially when it makes
an entry too late -
Too late until
Life has already
played out her magic.
Her filthy,
crooked magic of
Attachment.
