Passing Away

I never truly knew what it really meant to hear the phrase of someone passing away
Until I experienced the reality of my dear father attaining his heavenly abode
An event that one knows is the ultimate truth but realization sank in late
As I relived the memories yet was not willing to acknowledge my fate

One always likes to remain in a stage of eternal denial
A dilemma that makes me wonder loud about my own existence of life
It just put all stops to all of my ambitions and aspirations
As I realized that one day nothing will eventually remain of the beads of perspiration

I always heard that we come empty handed and would eventually go the same route
It just happened that it was not very easy to manage my mental and emotional state
I felt uprooted and begin to dread the fact of starting life anew on a clean slate
Especially after attaining the insight that I had very little control on my own fate

As we all know there is always a fair difference between theory and practice
I had to grit and bear the advice of one and many as I lived out my destiny
The beads of conflict of past, present and future started to raise its hood
I had no time to brood especially since I had to control my own mood

Time stood still but yet seemed to be in an eternal flow
In the face of the rituals that only seemed to steadily grow
Every ritual had a relevant and meaningful significance
The substance and essence of life on hindsight urging me to get off the fence

As experiences of joy and sorrow were relived and memories were refreshed
The irony is that all of it was expressed posthumous rather than when in flesh and blood
The soul was encouraged to follow the light and seek its eventual site
I still dressed in the fantasies of this world was urged to further plough my might

The magical wand of the single breath of life expressing its all time power
Made me realize the meaningless and fruitless existence of my own life in a tower
As I realized that I do not even have control of the next second of time
It just made me more respectful and careful in squeezing every ounce of time

Never procrastinate on anything putting off actions that you feel is relevant and of value
Never feel that you should not express your emotions when life is in free flow
Never for once develop a myth that human life is always eternal
Always live life doing what you desire especially for those you truly desire!

The Resurrection

It just seemed another of those days when the sun showed its presence in the east
Little was I know that as the day progressed it was to be a key turning point
A time for me to have a re-look at the world as I had evolved over the ages
The time was ripe for me to establish a new direction and move away from mirages

When I wonder about the events in the past many seem a repetition
As I seemed to have got absorbed in the rhythm despite the many distraction
Life had taken me, yet apart in its fold there was an uncertain rectitude
As I wonder how do I pay back at all the beautiful moments of gratitude

As I lived and inhabited the alleys in my attempt to establish some allies
Little was I to know that more often than not, many would yet remember a folly
As the sweet nectar lets go the possessed honey amidst the morning dew
Realization sank in that minority are the wise who seem to live life with a clue

It was one of those moments that seem to be ever waiting at the door
As my eyes closed amidst the memories reliving the old folklore
It was a sudden connect that seemed to reflect and bare it all
It was the moment that I was waiting for when I finally found my call

Life had finally found a purpose, a mission to look forward to
As I finally progressed on to a new journey with a sense of determination anew
A life had resurrected and replayed back the events of the now seemingly distant past
The difference was the future seemed to have found forever a refreshing new cast.

Divine Splendor

It was the moment that I was waiting for in months
When I could catch a glimpse of your divine occurrence
The glow on your face, the cute mischievous smiles
The beautiful eyes could attract me from miles

Your charm radiated and magnified your presence
Your calmness did not reflect any hint of pretense
Your trust reflected your inherent innocence
Your exuberance made me want to cast a protective fence

Your could by your touch give complex to the softest of petals
You could by your looks create and make one indulge in desire
You could by your sweet voice inspire one to sing a melody
You could by your magnetic eyes ensure building an instant tie

It did seem a wonder how you managed to keep yourself light
Despite a long journey in flight that kept us wonder about your plight
It was a treat for my sight and I could no longer differentiate day and night
The magnificence of the light made the environment joyful and bright

I long to participate in this dream as it slowly uncovers and unfolds
I understand there will be experiences over which I would have no hold
I believe the unique intensity would gradually take over and enable the mould
As the memories warms up one’s moments on which they have been completely sold!
