Pure Soul

Flashing through my memory,

I see you bright and vibrant,

So subtle, so serene,

You always walked with a smile.

 

The childhood memories would not be complete,

If it wasn’t for you,

How would I know the affection you carried ?

You were always the spiritual for me.

 

Life took us different ways,

Only to meet again with the same infectious smile of yours.

You sang, you cared, you breathed life into all you touched,

The day may seem murkier but you always had a song for it,

You sang to every mood,

You sang your heart out.

 

The calls, the talks, the messages, the thoughts,

All seemed so pure from you,

You were like a child within hustling with zeal,

And yet you were the most grown of all.

 

I wake up to the clamor of the mind,

Longing to hear your words to give me belief,

Who will instill the positivity into the intentions ?

Who would care like you did ?

Who will sign off saying ‘affly Lolly’ ?

Who would smile at the hard like you did ?

 

You taught the truest ways of life,

Even with all the adversities,

You always knew how to be grateful.

Free from the worldly chicanery,

You were the pure soul.
