The life will remain the same, <br />You will remain the same, <br />They will remain the same, <br />The world will remain the same <br />With all its beauty and grandeur, <br />The moon will shine brilliantly, <br />The stars will twinkle <br />With all their splendour, <br />The nightingales will sing in the garden, <br />The flowers will scatter their beauty all around, <br />Nature will spread Her skirt for Her nurselings, <br />People will celebrate Eid, Diwali and, Christmas, <br />Their joy will know no bound, <br />But ah! <br />I will not be there <br />To share this joy.<br /><br />Mohammad Akmal Nazir<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-bitter-truth/
