He is alive

Written after a few days of demise of India's guide Dr.APJ Abdul Qalam

My want is to be blind to keep away the news of your demise

For I couldn’t let me feel that my guide is no more alive

 

My wish is to be deaf to make my ears get rid of the mourning’s

For I never could imagine a nation that is devoid of you

 

My need is to be a mute since I heard you aren’t there anymore

For I always fell back on your word to speak as if you are a book

 

My desire to be ignorant about the thought of your death

For I never even imagined a nation without you having its steer

 

My prayer is to be immersed in a deep and sound sleep

For I don’t want even to have a thought of your loss again

 

My hope is to have a life with a thought of you are alive

For I drew myself to the notion that you are still around

 

My trust still falls back on your mission for the nation

For I still perceive heights as per your guidance and counsel
