Debjani Mitra Poet Verse

End of Life

Letter to whom it may concern
 no need of reply in return
 this lifetime

You promised I won't let you go
but a melting candle won't glow
for lifelong

My love still shined in lighthouse trust
into a dark sea swashed and thrust
in lifeboat
 
Countless waves of ifs and whys drown
your goodbye tears keep trickling down
dear lifeline

Learning to live as a no one
an end of life has just begun
my lifestyle.
