Poem
Within seconds, life and death collide Within a blink of an eye, your last moments To hope, to trust, and to surety you are tide Your heart falls to its knees, and begins to pray to a God it so desperately needs You begin to lose ground…. Your very last breath …as you exhale and inhale is soo profound For it marks your very being All your sense are directed inward With sudden fear your heart is well cornered And a shrieking silence begins to sound, like thunderous cries Your mind begins to play tricks, to you, it tells false wishing lies Do not give up, to move head on…it whispers! it lies! With that last breath. As you exhale and inhale you still exist What was once real When life was once clear All of that banishes Even the hoping! The longing! For a nobler tomorrow vanishes Leaving all your nerves fried Leaving your soul dried Your very gist slowly but surely have died Numbness begins to creep in Like a devil when he whispers a sin Like a drum roll leading to a scene’s climax Like when your heart drops to your feet When all stops…silence engulfs, Shhhh!!! Can you hear it? The wait begins to take a heavy toll on your nerves, for the moment that you have for soo long anticipated The very instance… The moment when life and death collide The very last moment, When to hope, to trust and to surety your soul is tied It all of a sudden unfolds, leaving that body of yours dead and cold A chapter finally ends A heart is finally set at rest I say my goodbyes And wish only to see you in the afterlife
