O ' Death!

**O' Death**
(WRITTEN BY: : SAHEB MOHAPATRA)
(copyrights reserved)
O' Death, the kindest, where lies my end
Which thou bestow on every fate,
For loneness and tears me befriend
And nought but dolour for its despaired mate.

And all alone in an aimless stroll,
Few sedent smiles and hueless hopes
And sins too great to cram up this soul
Caged within this breathing corpse.

O' Death! O' Death! Embrace me soon,
For long have I been interred with woes
And a curse discovered from this boon:
Some friends are worse than foes

This is a poem based on a man who was bitterly betrayed by his friends. He is now old and weak and is all alone. His only friends are desolation and solitariness.

This desperate invocation of death says much more than what the words appear to convey about the hypocrisy of friends and relationships. Thanks a lot. I quote: And sins too great to cram up this soul Caged within this breathing corpse.
