Where Are You, My Son Poem by Bhaswat Chakraborty

Where Are You, My Son

Rating: 5.0


Where are you, my son, where are you?
I miss you very much, I miss you.

You said, you were happy with me
Why, then, did you leave me my son?

You opened your heart to me
Time and again
And I witnessed timeless innocence
Time and again

Why does the innocent hurry
to be one forever
with the Supreme Innocent
Why is it that most beautiful
Blossoms only for a while so short?

Do I know that you’re deathless and yet..
Do I know you’ll be alive in my heart
And yet…

Where are you my son?

******* On untimely demise of my student, Vikas Raj *******

This poem has touched my heart very deeply, when I see a Master sheding tears for his dear student's disappearance.

there is nothing more painful than losing some one so young. one is tormented and devastated by so many questions. i can identify as i lost a sister when she was just a teenager. it still hurts.10 Mamta
