I Am Alone On the Island of Death

I am alone on the island of death Around the bodies of hundreds Natural disasters happened a little earlier All dead My enemies, allies, relatives Some of the most intimate I am on mass of ruins Loud noise...Moaning...Unbroken silent in a trice I am just at the end There are no tears in my eyes, no fear in chest I am speechless I am in the midst of so much death, destruction Creation is alive It's my responsibility to rotate the wheel again Just me. SANDIP GOSWAMI, INDIA

I think that you've captured the moment of shock well, with this poem. I too, have been speechless at some of these disasters...sometimes you just look around and freeze and then, when the horror is realized...you have limitless ache. A very good poem to ponder.

Sandip, you are not alone. I know the feeling, sometimes we stand alone, when we allow ourselves to feel like that. Enjoyed ~SKAT
