She saw her husband sick and dying Counting his days laying She found the time flying Till death do us part Was the fairy lying She burst out crying She never thought she could love someone So much as this one Her whole life revolved around her special one She loved him more deeply Praying to almighty ever so deeply As she started to find completeness lately Her prayers answered and worries laid to rest her husbands health turned towards the best Did she now fear the worst? A sudden feeling of emptiness A surge of bitterness Sensing a loss of completeness She was willing to do her part Till death do us part Only if he was going to depart Now that the husband got the gift of life She felt she was sentenced for life This was now turning real with strife It was easier for her to commit in loss Alas life was not all candy-floss Her life now gone for a toss It was her search for wholeness Which exposed her emptiness She found she couldn’t create happiness The fairy tale was all magical and fun Till she thought she would be the only one Who could care for that special someone In caring for him she had finally felt whole Her heart now a shallow hole That he got out of the hole The answer lay in ending the search And finding completeness on her own Not longing to seek it with someone she thought her own She started to search within To find that emptiness lay within Much to her chagrin You don’t find completeness and wholeness In someone you love As the emptiness lies within by Sree
