Final Ending
The last hour of life
Shall come
Like it or not
Even if one is not ready
Still the life fetcher
Will show up without delay
Who would know
How to prepare
For a journey unknown
Facing this ending so final
Fear may occupy the mind
As resistance is futile
Why not settle with peace
No more burden to the weary soul
With regrets too late to mend
Just drift with the flow
Nature will take over
To impose our return to dust
The heart will strike its last beat
The brain will slip into oblivion
All senses succumb to eternal rest
Let Go
Let go your anger
Let go your despair
Let go your hatred
Don’t know what troubles you
But your face is full of anguish
Eyes brim with tears
Clinging to things
That consume your essence
Prevents you from chasing dreams
Don’t wait until the last hour
When you have no choices
But to let go of everything
While the sun is still shining
Shift your vision to brighter scenes
To enliven your days
Allowing vengeance burning
Only amplifies pain
Deepens bitterness
Let go
Free your heart
For peace to stay
Before Parting
Their melancholy intensified
In the last hour
As if with sadness
Time would go slower
But they knew no matter
How much they wished me to stay
I still had to leave
They stuffed as many things
As they could into my suitcase
Until it almost burst with their love
When it’s time to go
Mom would tear up
Dad a quiet person
Would naggingly remind me
To take care of myself
Watching their frail figures and gray hair
I knew times left for me to visit them
Were decreasing and once again
I used up another chance
