i try to run ,i try to escape but deep in my heart i know i have to live for the life i nurtured throughout and didn't hesitate .....i think of the day when i was almost slain , i opened my eyes when i heard my name ; i was moved when i saw tears spill all over her face and she cried ," how am i going to live without you , i cant live without you."
i think of the day when emotions were strong , hard to believe that i was moments away from the storm that could have swept me away ,and taken me along but her tears played a miraculous game ....i rose and fought ..... took her in my arms when she said " how am i going to live without you , i cant live without you"
All this while i never thought about my life , but the trauma i faced changed my view point about life,she is the one who is closest to my heart, she is the one who inspires me to write ...i look at rose like her face , when she smiles with a twinkle in her eyes.... i take her in my arms and rhyme these lines ," i am here for years to come , i will be beside you"
