154.Where Dreams Perish Poem by rajagopal haran

When she was sleeping
He was awake motionless
Day and night no matter
Indefinite future far ahead!

Water got poured
By the near and dear
To cleanse the remains
In a passionate way

No tears spilled over
From the staring eyes looking at none
Seeing her lay there helplessly
With his eyes aflame arbitrarily

Time came for the final game
With the lifting of the heap
Of the lifeless love on a special bed
Was it the end of all the show?

All were gone
Absolute silence
Arrogant in its manner
Annihilating for ever

Smiling from the photo
She glancing her lover
Waved for the total recall
Signaling his bankruptcy

Taking cue from the lady gone
The lifeline all along,
Releasing his last breath
Poor soul got immortalized!
