Little Death Poem by Dr Kamran Haider Bukhari

Little Death

Rating: 5.0


I can’t live without you.
Is it a complicated statement?

You ask me…
To smile,
To be happy,
To stay blissful,
To live content,
To enjoy festivity,
To dance tango,
And
To sleep with tranquility…

How can I?
Be happy & content.
When
I can’t see your lips moving,
Still I hear your soft-velvety voice…
When
I can’t hold your hand,
Still I feel your divine touch on my soul…
When
I can’t live without you,
Still I live every day;
After burying my stinking corpse,
In the graveyard of each new dawn…
