FAR AWAY

    Take me for away
    I'm at end of my way,
      that started from birth
       on mother Earth  !
     Now almost at point of death :
     Waiting for my last breath.

    Now to venture far away 
     Show me light, I pray.
     Left my happiness 
     Future is hopeless.
     Left my pain and sorrow
     After Life is waiting for tomorrow 

     Yes , I know I'm going far away 
     very soon, no more delay
     On Earth seen heaven and hell
     Now to respond on last bell
      No scope to turn back
     I'm bound to follow my pre-scheduled track.

     Senses are choked 
     floating in unconscious waves
     getting entry to after life phase
     to explore an unknown zone.
