The Last Voyage Poem by Aditya Pathak 'particle'

Sailing through the waves,
I pierce the rough sea,
The distance of eternity,
I cover for thee.

The scorching sun at its extreme,
stands lifeless in front of her gleam.
The splendour of my lovely lady love,
tosses the pain aside and brings in the Dove.

The glee and joy of dreaming her embrace,
strengthens me, in the worst of days.
Her fragrance & smile, when she stands by my side,
Leaves me spell bound and I stand either dazed or amazed.

Sailing in her thoughts, sailing by the waves,
I reached the Arden’s coast, paces away from my post,
I saw people gathered, thought it was my welcome,
but when I heard them mourn, spasm of anxiety pushed me down.

I questioned my soul, what’s the matter around?
The reply to which I got was a mere nonexistent sound.
I saw a miraculous beauty, sleeping in the coffin,
Laying there in silence was my Chocó-pie, my dolphin.

My heart skipped its beat!
The ground just slipped beneath my feet.
I stood there as lifeless as a stone,
the light of the Sun, hid behind the devil’s throne.

This setting sun took my life away,
To that growing darkness, there never shall be a day.
They were taking her away,
telling now she lay in God’s arms.

I went running to Lord’s dwelling,
Asking, why He took away my ‘only charm’?
The funeral took place,
when I was fighting in the church.

They took away, even my last chance,
to feel her touch.
For the heaven’s sake I beg,
give me back my love!

Or give me some venom,
to reach her as such.
Life I know is now a dead choice,
Without ‘her’ and ‘her’ loving & comforting voice.

But to her I owe the promise I did,
that, I’ll live even if she leaves me amidst.
Time heels but leaves some strains,
In me she still carries, freshness of lilies, that to in the rains.

Now the dawn and dusk both go in vain,
Since no one understands the heat of this pain.
