We’re raised to believe that finishing is what gives life value, This constant need to arrive, the need to complete, When death comes and leaves things undone anyway. Death creates a spectacle of finitude, how impromptu it can be. But there is no such thing as an untimely death- It simply happens, just the way it does. And LIFE, life does not just disappear after. It redistributes to everyone left behind, Into how they think, how they choose, love, and question. Death is just death- The most natural, human truth there is. But no, it does not erase effort; it only exposes the lie That completion was ever the point. — fir.m

Death
Two beautiful people Under a moon lit sky A stream of tears That leave the eye Some call it a tragedy Some call it a master piece Whatever it is It's something untimely

untimely
I had almost forgotten, The lines between the lines, Details in dreary designs, Perpetual persistent patterns, Relentlessly resilient repetitions. Why would you come now? To remind, reminisce or read, Reckless racks of reads. All- knowing knocking knight, A random reckoning recites. What are these questions? You ask, alter and annoint, These dreadful death dreams, And plough out pangs of pain, Of a wilted and withered world. Can't  allow this anymore, Lose this loathful lust of yours, That belittles my boistrous being, Paint a pretty picture please, Let go and leave, one last time. I live in a different universe, Of my wonderful whimsical wishes, Floating  over my fantastic fairy tale, Never nitpicking the neverending nows, The happy hopeful and happening hows.

Untimely Listener
#*Little that I know that I was lost when I could find no one around To seek within me took lot of time And the song that I listened too, Over and over again I came to know that the singer had died. It was shocking to me When it came to light! The tunnel seemed unexpectedly too long Expected to be patiently impatient For the things I have never known. Now I stand still Let me know Let me take the lead And fear no more Let me be me To see how it goes No more hestisation Let me fall into the unknown ocean And reveal it into splishes and splashes And enjoy the waves As it goes!*#

Unexpected route
Lips slightly parted like two mountains forever separated by a deep valley As you bring the cancer stick to your lips with such grace it almost beautiful But really what beauty is there in a slow self-destruction? Deep breaths of air mixed with tragic suicide enters your lungs, A breath of escape or relaxation is what you call it; a breath of death is the reality. Breathing out, the smoke escapes your lungs in strings of grey like the clouds in the sky, Dissipating leaving no trace of the destruction it caused.

smoke stained kisses
Livin with just a little time Left up inside the hourglass Lonely upon my mantle Within this lonely habitat I haven't left for days I haven't seen the sun since Through the ground I saw your face Dying within the dying light Of the candlelight on the balcony Receding split second in duress To the fantasies and the dreams Good dreams, gone nowhere I haven't slept for years I haven't felt touch since Under soil I saw your face Covered in ivy climbing My spinal column For debt I accrue My interest Is highly marked I'm involved to the cusp of Breaking mentally I want heat I want ******* sleep Untimely
