Dead

Dead


Dead person does not harm 
Or love any one
Why people scare of them!
After death

Surgeon knows dead person 
Does not oppose
While dissects corpse

Difference between the dead
And slept is
One can speak
Another cannot.

All know this irony fact
Even cannot trust in that

Like in cinema role remains apart
People in life perform vast
With a fact along belief of act

Thus the life rolls on rolls on 
Until fate defaces task

So in time keep with tact of nature 
And forget to fear with dying act

Surgeon knows dead person
Does not oppose 
While he dissects corpse.

Yes, Robert it is creation we should accept death boldly when the time comes. I composed this poem merely to reminisce it always so that it becomes lighter. Thank you very much for the visit and feel it.

It is inevitable that everyone's body will stop functioning some time in the future. We just want to keep deferring it for as long as we can.
