~An Agony

Freshness in your looks,

Kindness in your heart.

Boldness in your pronouncements,

Determined in your act,

Best in your benevolence,

Mildness in your walks,

I love the way you are!

Even in my dream,

Even that day in the frame,

You look so visual.

Attempted not to fume in usual,

I was attached in realism

Made an all-out effort to brainwash

The fatality of impure life.

Indeed, in the jealousy that you are good wife

Yet impermanence wipes you away

From the hand of a caring husband.

Still our Sonam is sleeping in his best innocent

Unaware yet in his comeback from dream,

The broken father contemplates how to comfort.

The sleeping child yet the jewel you left behind.

Still on the pillow of our juvenile love,

I miss those giggles and annoyance

Mixed with emotion and pleasure

Yet I assume you will come back in the afterlife.

I miss you!
