A Cry... From An Old Heart...

My Heart cries whenever I visit ‘Old Age Homes…’
My Heart cries when they tell me how that all happened…
My Heart cries when I try to make them smile…
&... I wrote a poem for such people…

With A ‘Message…’



‘What to do now…

& Who to blame…?

How to play while…
Life isn’t a game…



An act that I can’t play…

A name that I can’t take…

My eyes had a Shine…
But now there’s a tear’s lake…

 

The day when I became a Father…

I aimed to love my Child…



But which mistake I made in my past…

That My Own Blood became so wild…?



Many Rainfalls my heart has had…
60 winters my eyes have seen…

But the way this Summer makes me feel…
NEVER SO COLDAS IT’S BEEN



My eyes have now been Shineless…
& My smiles have also gone…

I gave you my life… My Son…
But you made me all alone…




I see you’re busy with your family…

& you love your son as I did…

When I came home from my work…
I always loved when you hid…

I pretended to be blind…
untill you came behind me…



But now you’ve grown up…
Now in your home… you mind me…



I never wanted to depend on you…

But my life made me unable…

What I always wanted for you…
Is just… to see you Stable…

You’ll realize it when I’ll be dead My Son…
Then you’ll come & give me your Shoulder…




Cuz one day you’ll be like ‘I AM…’

& ONE DAYYOU’LL BE AS OLDER…’





I want to request all of those…

Whose Parents are alive…
whether in Old Age Homes…
Or at your home…
TO TAKE CARE OF THEM

AS THEY TOOK CARE OF YOU
WHEN YOU WERE NOTHING
BUT USELESS TO DO ANYTHING ON YOUR OWN

THEY TAUGHT US EVERYTHING WE KNOW
THEY GREW US UP
THEY GAVE THEIR LIVES TO US

& NOW IT’S THEIR TIME TO RELAX
& OURS TO TAKE CARE OF THEM

THEY PLAYED THEIR ROLES WELL
NOW IT’S OUR TURN
TO MAKE THEM HAPPY
TO TAKE CARE OF THEM

& I want to request all of those (who unfortunately have lost their parents…)
To fetch some time for visiting Old Age Homes…
& To talk to these ‘DYING DIAMONDS…’
No matter atleast 2 hours on just weekend…
but these 2 hours would be really precious for them…
WHO SPEND EVERY SECOND OF THEIR LIVES WITH TEARS

I’d be glad if I made ATLEAST ONE to do so through my forum…

Thank You…

Thank you my dear Shah Sahab… ;)
You always appreciate me as a Brother… :)
Thank you again…
I wish you to fetch sometime for them… (IF THAT DOESN’T DISTURB YOUR ROTEIN…)
Otherwise… If you even have sympathy for them…

My Dear Songgg…
Thanx for being here…
Really true lines you used…
We must do good deeds to feel better over there…
But most of us are so busy in living lives that we’ve forgotten that…
ONE DAY DEATH WILL CATCH US
If we realized… it’s better for us…
If we didn’t… then that’d be MORE SCARY
I wish you to do good deeds…
I guess like you always do… :)
Take Care…
Stay Blessed…

My Dear Saenger D… :)
It’s my pleasure to see you here… really… :)
Thanx for your appreciation… :)

Yeah you said right…
Unfortunately in U.S & Europe it’s not for Old People as it’s here…
Well I hope every kid to respect… love & care for their Parents…
Cuz according to me…
If I give ‘EVERY SINGLE BREATH OF MINE…’ to my Parents…
Even then I can’t pay them back what they did for me…
& Every Parents do the same…

& When my Parents holded my hand when I raised my ‘FIRST STEPS…’
Then I’d be ‘THE MOST SELFISH & CRUEL KID…’
if I don’t hold their hands in their ‘LAST STEPS…’

& I’m glad that you meet your Mother… :)
Yeah… She deserves this… :)
I wish her & you all a Long Life with Health & Happiness… :)
Aameen…

I agree with you guys, when anyone of us get in this age they get more emotaionally attached to these things, you can say they have more strong feelings for there family.
