Farewell Speach Poem by Ramakrushna Sahu

Well, it is now evening
And I am asked to leave the stage,
The time still is fine
The sun still resembles
its rising face
But it is my duty to warn you
That the time coming
Is not good for my offsprings

I have eaten the earth
That was given for all
The children of future to come
And drank it's beauty
Left the rest polluted and poisoned
To be untouched even by death

I have used the light
To dig the earth for treasure,
To penetrate the mystery of sky
To find out the hiding of God,
I have misused all light
to satisfy my hunger
And left not least for love

I am sorry my dear friends
I lived a life with my eyes closed
And have planted darkness
For you to reap suffering
Through out the night
That never has an end.
