In Last Days of Life

In last days of life, Lie in bed, Wait to exit from this world; Packing all past records in soul, Mind works, rewinds records, I have to gather all I have; Did good or bad, sad or joy, Hate and love, All + or - add and subtract, Prepares soul to fit in spiritual mould; My body, mind both are weak, I am so sad, Wish or no wish I have to leave; Surrounded by kids and kin, Look so sad but, Wealth, my belongings are in mind; Wait impatiently when I leave, So can grab share of own; A mirror of mine, Knocked my soul; Whispered don't get so upset, Its worldly affair; You need not tense, None loves you, Love only what you have; A guide of paradise appeared finally, From unknown different world; Said to me, now its end of time, Took me in its lap; Over and over asking him, Let me carry body of mine; Laughed by him ha..ha..ha, Said, nothing you need, All belong to earthly world; This world is only school, Body, kin and kids are only tools, As books, pen and paper, In your school; Come, lets go to the world, Where no sad no worry, Only you, your identity live; © sadashivan nair
