You are my friend who would remain...

In a time where I forgot what I was
In a time when I searched for what I was
In a time when I longed to be as what I was
I saw a gentle man who was the way I was
I saw an acquaintance who talked the way I was
I saw a friend who laughed the way I was
I saw in his eyes my beautiful world
I saw in his laughter my happy world
I saw in his words my airy world
I realized what I had become
I could understand what I had become
I then grew in stature seeing in front myself
I grew in confidence seeing in front myself
I became what I was
I changed to what I was

You were my light in darkness
You were my laughter in pain
You were my hope in suffering
You are my friend who would remain...

--> Swar
(As he wants to be known)


This was written by my friend and it is about me. I was speechless after reading this. I am sharing this with you, with his permission and I hope you too love it.

Hi Mohan, (or Swar)...

It is really nice to define one's own inner voice (swar) as some one's. However, how well is depicted as from others, true things and that are from heart stand by their own Identity and significance and never ending frangnance.

Happy to hear about you from 'your' Swar....I swear...!

All the best and take care.....

With thanks, regards and best wishes,
Kanth.

Poem is really very good.

While reading I felt that, these lines came from his heart.

Some how I felt pain of the Swar while reading this poem.

And a good +ve end too.

Immediately I started thinking, did I gave any such a pain to any one else with out my knowledge?

I hope he will not be back into his dark days/mood. Because he learned how to over come it now.

Life is a journey we need to go with it :-) it is good or bad.

Intentionally or un-intentionally you helped a person who is in need.
Or you could inspire him :-) good job man keep it up.

You saved a young energy dude.
