Mirage

One day I realized that something is really missing,
May be the feelings in me or the attachment with you,
Tides of the ocean, color of the leaves and it kept me teasing.

I opened my door; there was fog all around,
My eyes could not clear the foggy view,
But amazingly, this fog and its smell kept me surround.
I was helpless, shouting for help,
Coz I didn’t find anyone else.
All my patience and self esteem were at stake,
Suddenly I heard a sweet voice telling me get awake.

I opened my eyes, those foggy views dispersed,
And now I could see someone coming towards me,
I was afraid and fear struck my mind,
That unknown figure came closer to my ears and whispered.

“Come along”... I am the one for whom you have been waiting all life long,
I said,” who are u?”…why shall I go with you?
“Can’t you differentiate between the old and the new”, Figure replied.
You are old and I m auspiciously new, 
I am your soul, who accompanied you to your whole life.
Now you are dead and it’s the end of your life that God made.

I was shocked, I was dead and it was a grave,
Everything has an end to it,
And I know, I was never so brave.
It is time to leave and bid adieu to all relations,
Sorry all for everything and I here put an end to this lesson.
