THE LAST WISH

I loved you with my heart,

I loved you with my soul,

But the world kept us apart,

And gave my heart a painful hole…

My life is short and I will die,

But just once, can’t I say good bye..?

I want to look in your eyes,

And say “don’t cry...”

I know I won’t find you,

You are thousand miles away.

Can’t these borders be erased?

Just for today?

I remember the day,

When you went away,

To fight with bullets and guns,

To run with pouring blood n wounds,

As if they were your companions.

I could sense something wrong,

Unaware of the unlucky star.

My senses proved me right,

You were among the prisoners of war...

My tears went dry,

And my fears started to cry,

I didn’t know whether,

You would live or die...

And now my life is on its verge,

Life is slowly drowning,

And death is waiting to emerge.

My last wish is that you come to my funeral,

And sing me a dirge…
