A fleeting breath........

A fleeting breath........

A Poem by Anushka Bright

I had promises to keep
and duties incomplete
my life-a trap
a life filled with misery and pain
I could hear the sound of a death knell at my door

Melodies of death echoed
its symphonies synchronized
and the sands of time moved faster than ever
My soul eager to leave my body
ready to depart from my beloved mother-
The reason for my existence.
   
Suddenly,
The music stops
All i could hear was silent whispers and sobs
Images faded,my eyes blurred
As i moved, I floated around
with a presence unfelt

The church bells tolled,
and there i lay-
Lifeless on a beautiful casket
adorned with flowers and festoons.
Alas! My venture to the unknown begins.
A new journey,
A journey far away from people i love..........
