When Death Speaks

I am about to perish forever,

but few tastes of life I am still to savor.

I am yet to feel the real beauty,

am yet not over with my petty duties.  

I know my end is nearing me,

in some time, I won't hear or see.

But I still have a few unspoken words,

I still have to see before my vision is blurred. 

 a thousand places I have never been to,

with green grass below and sky above blue.

I wish I had just some time more left,

so that I could die free from this bereft. 

 Time in my life had never stopped,

the pace of life had never dropped.

and I never wished so when I was alive

but now for a single breath I do strive.  

I wish I could tell you one more time,

that when I see you my heart chimes.

you were the best thing I ever had

leaving you behind makes me incomplete and sad. 

 But now it’s time for me to leave,

my nerves can feel the special eve.

so goodbye all my friends and foes,

my last wave to all before my eyes close.

U r my only asset to whom i owe

"u r my only asset to whom i owe"

Silently, I sit by the window gazing the horizon

As for me it seems the time has frozen

Darkness is all what is pouring in

The only sound I can hear is my heart beating

My eyes feeling sleepy and heavy with pain

I could see on my cloth-the nasty red stain

 

I know there is nothing more for me to gain

Still I am continuing my desperate prayers-all in vain 

A sudden nightmare has shattered my identity

Which counted on me an irreversible casualty

 

A drunken driver, and for saving a child

He left me amidst the world howling wild

Together we had embarked on a treasured love

With our innate pious feelings well gelled up

He always would say

         "A life full of hardships, I was leading

         And from nowhere as an angel you walked in"

He was there to hold my hands always

To make me the happiest with his crazy ways

When I feared that I would be left lonely

My dearest one would embrace cozily

Kicking my feelings of life's agony

But now I sit by the window gazing the horizon

As my life slowly engulfing the deadly poison

One day he had whispered to me low

"You are my only asset to whom I owe"

Now dear, it’s my turn to show

That I can fight all the shackling woes

Now, I can feel my pain getting numb

Reaching for you dear, just hold my arm

The frozen time has again started flowing

As I sit by the window with my eyes closing
