Dying Beautifully

by Satish Verma   Aug 11, 2015


I stay connected out of the body,
with fireworks,
to widen the relativity,
to read the language of fear.
Death of a tree was mourned
by leaves in shadow.
The dew lies awake crying.

The town was disappearing
without a dialogue
with past, we were digging our heritage.
In search of roots
life was killing the tomorrow.
You an answer seeking
which was not yet born.
Over the mind
an ancient prayer floats.

The house was on fire
the words cannot cover the flaming body.
It was dying beautifully.
The space between the memories
will shrink and we will destroy
the ugly calender.

    You have such a wonderful style... Your poetry is so real but so... I don't even know how to put it... Intricate but simple as well in the best way. I want you to know that your poems may not have a lot of comments and that you may never be famous for them in your life but they are wonderful and I believe some day you will be remembered for them.
