We live, We suffer long enough To die, Ask a man , old, Older than those streets, Who moulds memories in the footpath Of misery, 1 or a million die in his existence Still he lives, He lives In those ashes n graves And questions, Is he a boon or so unloved to be betrayed by death, His bones tremble n crack, Lifting weight of dead Dead that were ones alive To make him stop question That why he lives, Now as he narrows down His vision to embrace, He personifies His desperation to die, Be it the scarf or the pen, Or Rotting in the fen, Or bathing in the acid, Or not so happy ig placid, Be it the snakes or the worms, Or leaches in their throngs, Devouring his curse, As he crumble down his purse, He whisper to his lady, Who lives in her arcady, They will cross their paths aboon, As he still thinks, He will get his death so soon.

No Death For Oldman
We live, We suffer long enough To die, Ask a man , old, Older than those streets, Who moulds memories in the footpath Of misery, 1 or a million die in his existence Still he lives, He lives In those ashes n graves And questions, Is he a boon or so unloved to be betrayed by death, His bones tremble n crack, Lifting weight of dead Dead that were ones alive To make him stop question That why he lives, Now as he narrows down His vision to embrace, He personifies His desperation to die, Be it the scarf or the pen, Or Rotting in the fen, Or bathing in the acid, Or not so happy ig placid, Be it the snakes or the worms, Or leaches in their throngs, Devouring his curse, As he crumble down his purse, He whisper to his lady, Who lives in her arcady, They will cross their paths aboon, As he still thinks, He will get his death so soon.
Sometimes all we want is death , as time passes we see our loved ones passing away as leaves in fall. We just think is it all what we wanted to live more to suffer more and more of this misery, and in the end we tend to run towards the phenomenon we freighted our whole life, DEATH!
