LIFE. TRANSCENDING DEATH
In last phase, as life approaches death,
off and on contemplation engrosses me
surpassing all activities and feelings.
Eternal question of meaning of LIFE demands an answer.
My introspection finds no concrete conclusion.
Oh, my soul ! Where do you exist?
Life is bounded between twin points ‘Birth’ and ‘Death’.
I feel life in every limb and in each breath.
Through last breath does conscience percolate, and
just to evaporate!
Oh, my soul! Where will I go after demise ? Who am I !
Oh, my soul ! Will you give me shelter?
After Life :
Since long I am dealing with life
now to get prepared to listen to last bell
with no idea of types of ' After Life'.
Too long Past only to reminisce embowered by nostalgia.
Too short Future how to venture in senile decay !
Basically none wants to lose Identity.
Body to demolish after demise::Inevitable.
Brain being an organ stops functioning.
Will thought processes be wiped off after death ?
If so-called 'Soul' or my consciousness
be really immortal identifying myself
that will be my ultimate solace.
Belief of immortal soul of mortal body
can give me best relief.
Life progresses carrying lots of emotional bonds
Can those be fruitless?
A wishful thinking : 'ME' will not be destroyed
when my body will die.
Human yearns for reincarnation to enjoy life.
I am not the exception.
But transcending death May I lose identity?
I wish to reborn in this Earth again and again
to experience more and more.
the 'UNIQUE ' 'ME' to come and go recycling 'LIFE'.
Oh, my soul! What is the assurance of your immortality ?
Only to solace and console the helpless entity !
Oh, my soul! Do you exist only in my imagination?
Oh, my soul ! Am I entwined with you?
