Poem
I just know I would see that smile again I just know I would hear that childish laughter again Why, life on Earth is not the end of the road Rather, it is a mere transiting station One with an aim already foretold Indeed, here one is meant to acquire more spiritual knowledge So as to be prepared to take up duties in the world of the privileged There, in the world known as the one other There, in the world said to be the one purer Here, one is already fated to leave Of such, we should not grieve Rather, we should only care to live our lives And cater to our duties and to our moralities Such is what I had read once, In those books made of wise soothing words Those books from which I learnt so much Those books into which I do only yearn to drown myself in So, when I got news that my peer has left without saying goodbye Even if swallowed my gulp, checked my fast beating heart And held back my tears I also looked at the skies and smiled For I just know that I shall see that smile again For now, life shall be a pain Yes, life shall even turn out to be a disdain But no goodbye is to be seen to be a final one Somehow, I shall hear that laughter again I shall get to bear with that taunt again I shall have, by then, already unraveled the puzzles of life And I shall understand and accept the timing of that goodbye For in that world other, I would see life from a different view Pitying my once blinded self Pitying the many who remained still blinded, with no awakening Life, a mere wondrous piece of soulful torture Is to be lived as it is With arms opened wide, ready to welcome anything that it gives to us From new friendships, to painful goodbyes!
