Dead Timeline

DEAD TIMELINE It was a facebook notification It has always been a facebook notification Notifying me of most of my friends birthdays anniversary Just as always; all I do is post birthday wishes on my timelines. On a busy Saturday morning of 11th may 2014 Amidst weekend chores; I received a facebook notification in my phone Like normal; I picked up my phone to read the lingering message Guess what? It was about Princess Ruphina’s birthday. Without doubt; it just a normal birthday birthday notification But still with doubt; do the dead celebrate birthdays? Amidst possibilities; could the sun ever shine at night? Amidst wishes; can death days reverse back to birthdays? In a moment, years came strolling down in a day Memories surging so fast like fast flowing spring The long forgotten yesterdays looked like it was today I can still picture your smiling face like you are still here It’s painful you can’t picture my angry face since you are not here Middle finger to death; happy birthday my princess Your soul shall forever rest in peace Rupina.
