Dark hour

Is her demise a dark hour in my life?,                                                                   She had ruled the home honestly for forty years,                                                                  As a guide, philosopher, preceptor and dedicated wife,                                                     I couldn't believe her separation through my innocent ears.                                                                                                    I wondered to see her unlimited faith and love,                                                                   She blossomed my extraordinary traits and habits,                                                          Several times, I tried those things to show and prove,                                                        She was the first educator who especially sent from the planets.                                           Our home seemed like a temple without goddess,                                                             My eyes fed up for searching her in our vast place,                                                            Without her,I had become a wild beast,                                                           I turned a tamed animal after seeing her face,                                                                  Her death shattered my life in the world,                                                           I felt someone loaded something on my little head,                                                                      In me, her memories and hospitalities were encircled,                                                               I wanted to escape from the motherly bond and fled.                                                                 I couldn't imagine the world without my mother,                                                         Always she followed me on the hard way like a shadow,                                                                I couldn't follow simply the foot print of other,                                                  No-one was ready and accept to share my sorrow.
