Graveyard songs.

Written By: Hameem Hussain

I know Mum will respect my choice. 

The blue tomb stone would be her choice.

I know Baba will fill the forms.

And bury me as soon it can be done.

I know they will write a pretty couplet, 

Bring me flowers and burst in tears.

I know they will come regularly for some days. 

Talk to me as we used to do in old days.

I know my mama will pardon my mistakes. 

I know my papa will hold within some tears.

But in murky and sunny days, I will be let alone. 

With the whirling winds and graveyard songs.
