I Woke Up One Night Poem by Minee Dey

I woke up one night,
Everything around seemed alright
Then suddenly I realized that I am missing from inside.

Yes, Funny it may sound
but when I look around
I cannot see and feel myself to be living in this world.

I am Dead, I am Dead
As dead as a rotten log in the deepest dense forest,
as dead as the heart beating in your heart.

Ohh! ! So u don’t agree that u r dead-hearted,
Tell me when you last wiped a tear of a mother’s eye whose son died
Because you could not spare a single penny.
Tell me when you last did something to bring smile
On the face of that little girl, who was buried alive near the river.

U and I, we all are dead,
We live our life thinking day and night of another brighter tomorrow
But tomorrow when we will die what difference it will make to the world
For the world you are already dead, you don’t even exist
And if you peep inside your body, it may seem to be functioning alright
But the body of which we are the sole part, doesn’t have heart
Yes, the society in which we live is dead.
