Insanely sane… Surviving qualmless.

Insanely sane… Surviving qualmless.
I'm not a perfect person, But I never meant to do those things; And so I have to say before I go, That I just want myself to know. I've found out a reason for me,; To change who I used to be A reason to start over new, and the reason is you. I've found a reason to show, A side of me you didn't know; A reason for all that I do, Before I let you go...

Eternal Repose.


You left many a pleasure,

You left many a work,

Are they for us to complete?

You left many a hearts empty,

You left many in tears,

You left many with memories;

What did you take with you then?


A coffin of reminisces you lie now,

A basket-full of memories.

You maybe are over with giving;

But did we ask you to go?

You never asked me for a bit,

Come I will give you the final rites now;

Did you leave us because you wanted these?


From me

My younger-grandfather.


Mask


I had seen it roaming about

I had seen it on the road

It was clear to me even in day light

As it lingered around me in the night.


Never had it haunted our peaceful place

Save one stray morning tragically

Snatching away somebody dear

To exist in some unknown heaven.


Since then I had not forgotten its ghastly face

Until this fine July morning

It showed the face under that hood again

To take the road until the end, its death.



SHE


How can I reach you now?

How can I but say what she spake?

Somebody wants you so much now;

That she can put her life at stake.



For you she had lived,

For you she held onto the sway.

And for you she had bore;

All the storms on the way.



She is hapless now,

A mass of misery and mourning;

She just wants to be with you;

Can you just visit her, one fine morning?



For you she will live,

For you will she strive to reach the shore;

Crossing all miseries and insults,

For the happiness you for her had left spread ashore.



My younger grand pa expired today morning. It is gloomy once again!
