Dead Man's Poem

Finally, Death sets me free
From my "eternal like" Agony
And in silent appreciation
Of what surrounds me
I decide to step outside
Feeling like a bona fide
Wishing what I wanna be
Seeing what I wanna see
I had tried and I had lied
All the rules I had defied
But I rest my end to fate
Nothing left to debate
This is the way I go
This is the way I fade

With regrets of the past
I wished for a change in future
Always I begged to differ
Selling my soul was what I preferred
'Cause I have waited
As waiting was my last defense
But Moments of endless hours
Drained all my confidence
Living in the past-tense
Overflowed my sentiments
Slides of memory came rushing thru
Whispering again and again
This is the way it all grew
This is the way it ends too!

Now I am on the other side
Where I don’t need to run or hide
Feels like I'm a new born
All my worldly senses are gone
Looking back I can see myself
Lifeless, soul-less, all alone
That is my past, and it didn’t last
It came from dust and its gone to dust
But I am here to carry on
Where there's no right and no wrong
I listen to this Soulful song
Singing, “This is where I belong
Its worth the wait, only too long!
But this is where I belong”
