Your Voice

i heard your voice even before i set eyes on you.
it was this voice that drew me to you in the very beginning.
it rang with sublime serenity......with eternal wisdom.

the voice of reason, i used to say to myself.

this voice is still etched in my memory..... four months after i last heard it.

i still hear everything you used to tell me somehow.. though you are no longer by my side.
the explanations..
the encouragements..
the truth.

most times, it makes me yearn and hope in vain.
on rare occasions, it saves my sanity.
the memory of your voice fills my mind with light in my darkest hours.

i will never forget your voice nor will i forget the lessons.

even if i love you's uttered have long faded into echoes.......i will carry your voice with me.

soundless as it may be.
