And I Write This On Your White Tomb With A Piece Of Charcoal Poem by nimal dunuhinga

When I see the twilight sky
I think of you and your poem paintings!
When I hear a bird's chirping faraway
on a tree, I count your unsung poems?
Whenever I pass burial grounds
I believe that you're still alive
and write?
But you're gone and it's certain.
Do you remember we made a promise once
That one of us do our Epitaph?
Yes, it's my turn and I write this
on your white tomb with a piece of charcoal
and who writes on mine in your absence?

I dedicate this poem to the celebrated poet Khalil Gibran for his love letters!
