Unnamed [part3]A Poem by Ankur Choudhury
She'd hold her breath
when I asked the reason she told, "I want to feel the death". I chased beyond her dreams, I searched for happiness, I went on in depth and there I understood. Today she lay over the bed she used to smile at. People mourns around, I watch it happen. I cry, my hands don't feel anymore, I cry. My eyes wet for her, my heart trembles. The joy it saddens and it overflows everything I had. No one I asked knows why or when or how did she die, except for the young sister she had told me, "She wanted to live with you. She also wanted to feel the death. But she wanted the happiness so early that she had to die before her age". The obvious question it was answered. The strong aroma it disappeared. It took along my faith and hopes and the strength it took it all. © 2015 Ankur ChoudhuryAuthor's Note
