My Second Chance

My second chance I well know this is my Second chance with ephemeral life It's so pricey I would have never known Until.....I witnessed fear sailing in her deep brown eyes Saplings of death already down As my time seemed done I packed baggage to start my last sojourn With love and memories linens Every hour passing in flick of moments Quickly as my grip on life's rope loosened The subtle mind's strength was rapidly weakening Candle of breaths dwindling in turbulent storms Crimson life's sun fading below gray clouds of eternal sleep On wings of stress her each seconds solace had a quick escape As I kept sinking deep in unconscious abyss deep In drowsiness life's kaleidoscope rewinded it's tangled drapes Falling from her eyes her teardrops chased each other Her sunken eyes socket devoid of sleep Narrated the entire story after fortnight That I got in my senses Warm embrace of my Mother My second chance with life I saw In her twinkling damp eyes 21/01/2019
