What If You Shook Your Head. Poem by Binayakumar Mohanty

What If You Shook Your Head.

Rating: 5.0


What if anybody
Followed me
With band and bouquet
Carried the corpse
With royal cortege
Or shook his head!

What to me
Who dropped
Tear of melancholy
And lamented over
My sad demise.

I am no longer Me
Neither the cadaver you see
I don't remember
Once I lived to love you
Or loved to live mundane.

What to me
Who assembled at
The funeral
Or if subsisted on
My infusion left behind

What to me
You loved me once
Or I loved you.

What to me You loved me once Or I loved you.. death, passing away to the netherworld, tears, sorrow, thoughts of a love relationship, we humans are so depending on each other but when death comes........ very nice poem. well thought out dear poet.
