Imagine If The World Is Empty Poem by MELVIN BANGGOLLAY

IMAGINE IF THE WORLD IS EMPTY
Melvin Banggollay


Close thy eyes and imagine
But you know not where to begin
As the world you're now living in
is filled with emptiness and nothing
No one to share your every dream
No one to hear your laughter
To talk with as there are no others
Not even a star that shines or glitters
upon the vast space that towers
where no one hears your prayers.

Imagine if you behold no smile
Even if you have to travel a mile
Searching for someone's fire
of burning romance with desire
for there's no one else but you
to see the emptiness life bestow
with cowing thunder of sorrow
Do you still wish to live and go
in the ocean of life you knew?

Imagine what life would be
If there is no God for you and me
Where we behold hope to see
Grace and mercy of the Almighty.

Imagine a life without mission
Without a sense of vision
A life without any conviction
Can we go the right direction?
What if the world is truly empty
With nothing but remnant of war
Lifeless bodies lying everywhere
in crippled building of bomb attacks
from heartless terrorist of the block?

What if all that live are terrorists
With guns and goons at their feet
Life would be survival of the fittest
as there is no love and forgiveness.

Ahhh, i don't want to imagine
It would just brake my tender heart.
