Earlier when I had taken ill, <br />You cared, and I knew you will, <br />You came to see me with your stetho, <br />Cared much more than you treated, <br />The care and love it had gotten, <br />I wished ill I remained, <br /> <br />Ill am again, <br />To see me, you didn’t remain, <br />Even the info you got was just casual, <br />Asked How are u, to be cordial, <br />Could not reply in pain, <br />Wish my heart stopped forever, <br />Not to be ill again. <br /> <br />(June 1,2006)<br /><br />Amit Biswas<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/977-you-cared-once/
