Death "the Final Frontier"

DEATH: “The Final Frontier” As far as the naked eye could see Death with force was there to be Treasuring in its heart the cries of a score It has no longing yet longs for more A reality, a trial that stands apart None shall dare to stop the cart As relentless & overpowering as it may seem It bore an end to my beautiful dream And the time finally came when the curtains were drawn The sun kept shining, but without a dawn Its taste, as humble as its daunting fragrance Was nothing but a witness to its haunting presence Such was the splendor of this magnificent feast Ultimate peace, to say the least With nothing at all then left for me Death my dear was there to be

Habib! This is a very touching poem. I know the cause of such depressing thoughts in you. In my view there is a lot left for you in life. The sun of hope is shinning on the horizon with a promise to brighten your life. Death is inevitable and is bound to come at an appropriate time. Prior to that you have a role to play -such a role that brings cheer in other's lives. This and this alone gives fulfillment. Thanks for your comment on my Haiku Buried Hearts. -Mohammad
