A year has passed
You have not gone
I hear you in the music
That you listened to at dawn
You have not gone
Because now I clearly see
That love is in actions
Not in words spoken to me
How can you be gone?
When each and everyday I feel
Your warmth and love
In every tasty homemade meal
A year has passed, I do not mourn
That you are no longer on earth
Death can never take away
The life you gave me at birth
I do not cry, I have no cause for tears
Because I know I’ll always be
The daughter you loved, while you remain
My dearest Amma till eternity...
Your daughter,
Nimmou
