Stealing Away

Whenever I pass through this Silent graveyard I feel itching pain In my heart Through my every vain Thinking that my parents Who are with me now Will to come to this place One day without looking at me I lift my eyes To see their terribly wrinkled faces And lean bodies As if heavily burdened with time I see their watery eyes As if having a deep hidden sorrow Of the thought That they are to leave us Any of these days Their pain is out of words Out of imagination This is the pain Every parents feel while leaving Their loving ones I cannot bear these thoughts And keep away my sight From those painful watery eyes Stealing away from the reality Of this sorrowful world
