Till I Sip My Penultimate Breath

Till my life goes off,
Till I stop hearing your mellowing voice,
Till my body gets withered,
Till my voice is out of moisture,
Till my eyelids stop fluttering,
Till I stop gaping at the nature,
Till my blood gets cold,
Till my heart stops throbbing,
Till my lips become shrivelled,
Till my eyes become dry,
Till I fade into your lap,
Till I exile into nothingness,,
Till your memories stop lingering on me,
Till I am bereft of you,
Till I await to begin a new expedition,
Till I sip my penultimate breath,
Till these moments confluence and betide I am not going to forget you.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
