For you my friend...


My friend, will you accept my sorry?

It were tough times for you when you dint get through..
and I wasn't there, did not even ask how are you..

when you fell in love, you had butterflies in your stomach :)
Who else could you share with, but I said I have "work"...

When you got that award, you were so delighted...
Iwas busy so much  that I almost neglected...

It was your wedding , you were nervous I know
"No leaves" is what I said, and I dint go..

You had that interview, you were tensed, you needed me
when I should have been there, I dint talk saying "I am in a meeting"..

It was your birthday and I forgot to send a wish..
and then covered up saying "I was caught up in office, forgive me please.."

You were a little low that day, wanted to talk, to feel better
I dint even listen, saying I am "out with the team, will call you later.."

Job, work, promotions, appraisals, deadlines, reports, and leaves
They should not be reasons enough to forget you, my friend,who will never leave..
