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;
