Loss of my dear friend

I deeply wish it was only a lie,

told to me to make me cry.

I'd give away anything I own,

just to hear it was all a lie

don't you see, it really hurts?

please tell me it's just a lie.

Thoughts linked to her sweet memories,

 I sit here still blinded by her face;

her last words still echoing in my ears-

"you take care and better be safe".

cursing myself , I wish in vain

if only I had told her the same.

I know people leave and I can't help,

I know my tears couldn't bring her back,

I know I'll never see her again

but it's wounding my heart and it can't be healed

and  still I am yearning desperately to hear

'she's not left, it was just a lie'.
