Tribute To SrideviYou’re the only one I see, I turn around, and your right behind me. we never wanted you to go, but now you're just the wind that blows. Why did you leave us, without saying goodbye, you are the one who haunts our dreams, you are the tears that we cry. You meant so much to us, it's too hard to believe, that you’re no longer here, We saw you but you just disappeared. If you came back, the one thing I would say: Don't leave today.
