Even heroes die


Dear mom,
I failed
May be for the right reasons but
I failed

I thought I could move great mountains
Fly beyond the horizon
I thought the time was right

Not yet mom
Not yet
Got more to learn

But the memory will remain
Today, tomorrow and forever
I shall not regret, no I shall not

But I tried mom, I did
Though some say it is stupidity
I tried

Sorry that I hurt you mom
Sorry
An apology cannot replace tears
But it is all I have

Love,
Son.

Burry me in a barren land


Dear mom,
Oh I’m scared
Thousand heads passing me
Without a hello or goodbye

I am all alone in the sea
Not knowing what to do
Now I feel real life
Life as it is

Still I have not given it up
Still I have some faith with me
But I am scared mom

Love,
Son.

Through the misty clouds


Dear mom,
I’m sorry
I did not listen to you
I could not believe your words

But I’m not a fool
Today I may be nothing
But I believe I know something

Now I’m leaving
Where you rubbed my hair
Where I called home

But I did not betray you
I did not lie to you
I did not let you down

Try to remember
The moment I first said Amma
And the moment I said goodbye today

Now I’m going through
The misty clouds of sky
Recalling, reminiscing

I will try
I will fight
I will rise

I might stray
I might cry
I might fail

But what matter the most is
What you’ve learned on the way

Just give me one chance
To prove you what I am
To try for the impossible

Love,
Son.
