Day of Departure

Tears of Tragedy
Flood the gates of Heaven
Prayers remain unanswered
And all Hopes freeze in time

I gaze into the future
To glance back in time
It seems like all the memories
Of my past are pouring in
Like monsoon rain

I might want to remember
I might want to forget
I would love to forgive everyone tonight, perhaps
And be forgotten without any trace

It is a beautiful way to wind up
A solitarily exhausting journey
To listen to the peals of laughter
Echoing in the backdrop at the end

At least it is better
Than the monotony of silence
That eagerly waits to welcome me
And put my restless soul to rest
Once and for all

. . .


Now it’s all over
I am over here now
To bear with each long day
As it leisurely burns away
Until I soon fall fast asleep forever
To wake up to face my trial
On the most anticipated Judgment Day
