TODAY THE 13TH DAY (SUBRATA ROY CHAUDHURY)

Today was the thirteenth day

Rituals are a must all say

Will this close the chapter, hey!

A twin soul of mine has gone away

We will meet again in that world there

Never to separate due to karmas ever

This is to be our last birth here

It is a matter of few more years, mere

All my loved ones I will get to meet

Oh! God ,hope this paradise, is a love treat

I shut my ears to those who say it will us cheat

I am desperately waiting to hug them and greet

You visited me after you left the body organic

I too was waiting for your soul aromatic

You touched my head and I did not panic

Life and death has made me asymptomatic

Every death is an answer to my question

Live to love and die without hesitation

But why do good people suffer early annihilation

Not only early but through a painful situation

Is the last death a very painful death

Does the last death seek faster its berth

Is it desperate to reach early the hearth

Is it desperate to breathe its last breath.
