When you are one step away from losing them,

And are saying your last ever words..

What would you say?

Would you still talk

Or would the words just fail to come?

Even if you talk,

What all will you fit into those final moments?

Where will you begin and

How

Oh how!

Will you ever finish?

You may start by telling them

how much you love them,

You may then go over each and every beautiful moment

And recall all that you learnt from them

You might even remind them

of the horrible things they did to you

and then laugh about it

Or maybe you confess your crimes

and seek forgiveness.

But no matter what you say

It will not change a thing

Because

Words aren’t enough to define your love for them,

The beautiful moments are infinite and

you won’t be able to do justice to all of them

no matter how much you rush.

You will list all the things you learnt

But will you be able to fit in how important they were

In shaping you and your future?

You might have fun laughing about the horrible things now,

But would you be also tell them how

In your bad phases, those memories still haunt you

And that’s why you cry more than you should?

Even if you gather courage to confess your greatest crime

Would it finally render your conscience clean and guilt free?

No matter what you say,

no matter what!

It wont really

It wont.

Change a thing

No matter what you say,

It wont fill the void you feel

In their absence.

Because no words are ever enough

In the final moments.

And yet

You must say them,

For who knows,

Maybe it’s these words

That finally bring you the solace

That you seek

When you finally let them go.
