Years ago, I departed from that world.
I left that world, where time exists
The world where people breathe.
I left my flesh, so cold, in that elegant attire
The one, that burnt in tremendous lashing fire.
I left those hands, I held on forever
The hands, that tremblingly immersed my ashes into the unconfined flowing water.
And as my ashes drifted towards the unknown end,
Towards this new world I began to wend.
Where I can't hold those hands anymore.
Never.

Though destiny won't allow to meet them again,
I'll still cherish those beautiful memories, those dreams we dreamt together.
Won't let their love go in vain.
Never.

Years ago, from a loveable member
I became a good gone person to remember.
But for some - my fingers enough to count,
I am still an inseparable friend to care about.
Forever.

The ones who still ask for my shoulder
To rest their heads on it and weep.
The ones who still ask for my hand
To grab on and make a promise to keep.
The ones who still gaze at my eyes, but now in disbelief
'Are you really gone forever now?' I hear'em say
And then a tired sigh they heave.
The ones who still remember
What I took from them and also what I gave
The ones who still remember
That, though I made'em cry at times
Still, in the dark, held their hands, made'em brave.
The ones whom I'll cherish as long as time.
Forever.

Years ago, when I belonged to that world,
Made countless friends and buddies
Some remained, holding me together
And some flew away like a hasty breeze
But only a few, I was fortunate enough
That never left me
And will stay in my heart till eternity
The ones I call my family.
And we will never tear apart.
Never.

A/n : In our lives, there are countless people linked to us in some way or another . Some we call as friends, some enemies and some family.
But only a few people, be it friends or family or enemies, never let our memories with them flow away with time. Those are the ones who are our real family.
