OBITUARY

(Some fragile thoughts that came up in my mind....wrote it on 18th May, 2010)

In the closet of night, up and close
Greeting death, I write my own obituary.
I looked back, though nothing beckoned
Not a crying face, no mourning soul.

I can see you standing rather so near
But you no more trigger fear deep within.
For I can no more fight my haunting dreams
I wish to be loose and free forever more.

Driven away by hate, consumed by fear
Unknowingly I was caught in your shadow.
I wondered if there's anything I could say
But then I was lost in nothingness inside me.

Scorned by all, my fellow mates and allies
I slowly shed the byes to emply spaces.
Gazed hard upon the stony face of my fate
A life is lost, just when it started to begin.

Death, I see you getting close every jiffy
Now I'm just too frail to turn and run.
No more I keep you bearing far and wide
Greeting you still I write my own obituary !!
