...In A While Poem by Nithin Jacob

Such a short note and its life
Such a short spot and its love
Have you been with God?
Did he show you the land?

Wines spill
Wars burst
Spines break
Rhymes fall

Such a long road and its life
And it’s the journey of souls
Have you crossed the lane?
Did he take you by the hand?

Lovers split
Rains fall
Legends die
Martyrs fade

Such a huge term and its life
Such a short breathe and it’s us
Just a breathe to take pride
Just a breathe and we are gone

Infants die
Tears dry
Sun sets
Life ends
