The Agony Of A Departed Soul

Rating: 5.0


I left you all that day
I was half-hearted to leave you mid way,
But God had other plans for me
He did not listen to my plea.

From the heaven I saw you all weeping
Missing me badly and consoling,
I could not see your misery anymore
I asked God if he can give me one day more.

I wanted to come back to all of you
Will God allow me? I had no clue!
But seeing me in deep pain
He granted me a day without bargain.

I was so excited to come to our abode
So much to do, so much to you all I owed,
Seeing me I was sure you all will spring with joy
Taking me in your arms I knew you all will cry.

But I saw things were not the same any more
My things were not to be seen in our decor,
My stuff were removed and kept aside
I felt with me my belongings too died.

You all were shocked to see me at 'our' place
Should I call it 'our' or 'your' with disgrace
I felt like I was a stranger here
My people here now no more care.

I shrieked and looked up to my God in heaven
Take me away soon I don't want even a second,
My people have happily kept me in their memories
Contended they are with my treasuries.

With a heavy heart my soul did again depart
I saw my photo hanging like a wall art,
But not any more was I teary eyed
As I was finally uniting with My Lord, My Guide!

Nicely envisioned, Truly, our tie to the earth is a temporary abode and diminishes on our death but our tie with the Lord is forever. Loved reading and commenting on the poem

Oh dear! this feeling is painful but so true. I think, like mentioned in the poem, it is that is better to put behind us the departed than carry it along every minute; this would be sad for the all. The feelings of the Soul, is very beautiffuly expresssed. But God has a place in his heart and hearth.

This is such an awesome write Kavya! I enjoyed this second coming (going) thoroughly! This is exactly what will happen once the dead come back! They will be shocked to see how well the living have adapted to their absence and how obsolescent and out of place they have now become! Top marks!
