When I Was Dying. Poem by Prakash Mehra
When I Was Dying.
When I was dying, and dealing with the angel of death.
You disappeared, and didn’t turn back.
What were you waiting for, perhaps, my final breath!
Weren’t you aware of severity; didn’t you catch the growing bane?
Yet you let me die, and broke the cord.
Why did you leave me in silence, when I was in hyper pain!
What if I died, I didn’t let die my loyalty and your belief.
Though I was in a fast moving death track,
I could hold my promise to inform you before I leave!
Though you are guilty, I pray to God to bless you and forgive you.
But I am no saint, so again, I pray to Lord,
Give me strength to never rely on you and to never forgive you!
Powerful and deep feelings written to form a message. Very strong and created with emotion. Touched with a hint of mystery, this is a piece done with some thought. Nice work. Debbie
nicely expressed with strong feelings........the angel of death let you go to continue writing more poem in life's reality so keep writing more ............10++
Strong feelings well portrayed. The scenery even better laid. Good story.
What a touching lines? ? ? Weren’t you aware of severity; didn’t you catch the growing bane? Yet you let me die, and broke the cord. Why did you leave me in silence, when I was in hyper pain! Mehra. Your poem touched my sentiment. So simple...so soothing. Keep it up.
