Not Far Poem by Gajanan Mishra

Not far
My body.
But my mind?
I am trying
To keep it
Near me.

I am gaining,
I am losing,
But what is that?
I am analysing
Day and nights.

I fear
The way
I am living
And the way
I am dying.

Somewhere
Here or there
I am taking parts
In processions
And I am going
Brighter to brighter.

Time,
I am tolerating
Your unrestrained
Laughter.

We are all
Together
Father
Mother
Wife
Sons
Daughters
Sisters
Brothers.

All near
No one is far,
No one.
