I woke up early in the morning, by a phone call, <br />Which left me mourning. <br />I paced up and down in the hall, <br />Doing nothing but frowning. <br /> <br />People say obstacles come and go, <br />Alas! I’ve been caught by snow. <br />People say, we shouldn’t fear even in the darkest year, <br />Oh! What do they even know, how I fought my tear. <br /> <br />I gave up the sorrow, I gave up the pain, <br />I ran towards the door in vain, <br />While driving I thought in my brain, <br />Would I be able to refrain? <br /> <br />Once someone said to me, <br />Perk up when in need. <br />Help someone if you can, <br />Cause a friend in need is a friend in deed. <br /> <br />A distance covered in an hour, <br />Seemed to go on forever. <br />But who cares where the road leads, <br />Till we meet in the end together. <br /> <br />There she lay on the bed, <br />With no movement no sound, <br />Sedulity struck me, <br />With its hand cold and brown. <br /> <br />I know she would never leave me, <br />I would take her back home. <br />Now I only wait for the operation to be over, <br />Till I sit here and moan. <br /> <br />Minutes passed like years, <br />Until the doctor came, <br />And subdued all fears, <br />That feeling what can I name?<br /><br />Aditi Khandelwal<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/accident-10/
