To Die Means To Pass Away Anytime ****** Poem by MOHAMMAD SKATI

Death,
As we know it,
Means to pass away
Physically and spiritually
Into God's possession anytime...
It is a new stage
That is invisible
Inside one's tomb...
As long as it is inevitable, then
We have to surrender
To its authority
Willingly or unwillingly...
It will be a new life
That is unknown and invisible...
Everyone of us has to experience
It fully and without any hesitation
Simply because that's the way
With it...
They bury someone just
In a hurry immediately...
They put someone in
One's tomb just to rest
As they say, but
We don't know what will happen later on...
We stay in that tomb alone
Until that Day of Resurrection comes...
We ignore about a lot of things
Inside that dark tomb
Simply because that's the way
With it...
What we know that we have to pass away
When one's moment of death
Comes at the exact time...
We have to die
Willingly or unwillingly
Simply because it is something
Out of our will anytime,
Anywhere, and everywhere... _____________________________________________
