Sony Padickal Poems

The days are not so long
You can't just hang on and go on
Like the leaves so tender turn green
And await the spring, full of dreams
...

Don't cry when I die, try to laugh with me now.
Live for those who are alive, let them not die uncared.
Don't keep your love for display after death.
What do you want to pretend?
...

Relations are stronger than life
Stronger than death
We can't let them go
We wait for the silver line
...

You are not here to live someone's dreams
You are not here to follow someone's way of life
Keep away from advice on how to live and how not to
You are not here to wait eagerly in the morning
...
