I still miss you

Reema D'souza — Wed, 15 Apr 2020 01:30:00 +0000

Memories come to my mind, Sometimes for a fleeting moment, But often they linger on, Especially the memories of you. For memories are all I have of you, And with time, they say they fade away too. But I’ll hold on, to every bit of them, Though I know they are so few. If only I could turn back time, To when you were still […]

I miss you!

Reema D'souza — Sun, 15 Apr 2018 02:30:57 +0000

Looking back at the way life has been, If there’s a part that I could change, It would be without doubt, The part where you left. Sorrow fills my heart even to this day, Tears haven’t still dried away. Your pain though did cease, Left us with pain that will never ease. The time that I could spend with you was less, Some […]

That last sunset

Reema D'souza — Sat, 15 Apr 2017 13:40:12 +0000

I stood by the window, Watching the sunset. Feeling a little low, For darkness had now set. But then I remembered what you’d said, On that first sunset we watched together. “The sun will again shine and let its light spread, It is not gone altogether” Those words to me were a hope, Hope that there will be light, And that I can […]

10 things you realize when you have lost a loved one

Reema D'souza — Fri, 09 Sep 2016 18:30:29 +0000

Death of a loved one can never be easy. Each one goes through this process differently but whatever be the case, the pain is always there. Some hide it, some show it. Some cry when someone is around, some cry when they are alone. And if you have lost someone before you even understand what death is, then it a lot harder than you think. […]

Wishful Thinking

Image Source Every time I hear the sound of a scooter passing by, it evokes beautiful memories. I still run to the door like I used to. I still live with hope. I still can’t believe that you left this world, Dad. Call it wishful thinking, but I still wait for you. I know that you’ll come. 55 Fiction This post is written for Day […]

If only

Image source: Pixabay The pain is there Dad though it has been years, If only you hadn’t gone away. My eyes still are filled with tears, If only you could wipe them away. Why did you have to go Dad? If only it was just the pain that went away. Thinking about it makes me sad, If only you knew how much I miss you […]

#AtoZChallenge : To Dad

Reema D'souza — Mon, 04 Apr 2016 18:31:00 +0000

Dear Dad, Time flies, doesn’t it? It seems just yesterday when I was a little girl holding your hands when I walked, trying to imitate you when I talked. But now I’m supposed to be a grown up. It feels like a lot of responsibility and at times I don’t how I am going to manage all this. If only you were here dad. It […]

Down the memory lane

Reema D'souza — Fri, 13 Nov 2015 17:50:00 +0000

Photo prompt copyright: J Hardy Carroll “Daddy!”, I used to scream with joy and rush to the door when he came back from work. On the days when he was late, I would be sad and there were times when I even cried. But a tight hug from him would make everything alright. “Daddy!”, I wish I could scream as I stood beside his grave. […]

Wish you were here

As I walk down the memory lane, The moments spent with you come to my mind. And I feel the pain, After realizing that life wasn’t so kind. I remember waiting for you to return, Every time that you went away, Into your arms your little girl would run, And your hug would make my day! Memories are what remain, For its been long since […]

My role model

Reema D'souza — Fri, 30 May 2014 07:16:00 +0000

I think of life as a beautiful journey. A journey that takes us to many places, teaches us many things and makes us who we are. We meet a lot of people in our lives and we learn a lot from others. But there is a category of people whom we look up to. These are the people whom we want to be like and […]
