At This Ending Session Of Our Life Poem by umaprosad das

We have prepared to leave the race of the world;
And to take rest at this ending session of our life
Suddenly my sweetheart got sick and bed-ridden
I feel the bond of love between husband and wife

I bitterly feel without one another is incomplete
Both we need each other to swim over the waves
Full of tides, high and low, dangerous to sink down
So it happened; the boat overturned; nobody to save

We are floating, sinking, drinking the un-hygienic water
We become far away from each other and have no trace
Pray to God to give her strength to swim over the tides
And get her ashore alive, safely, with a new life afresh

Life is full of problems, struggling, suffering, and pains
Both physically and mentally, sometimes very difficult
We understand the truth when we have to cross over
The odds and uneven life tides having all-round assault
