Death

Death

A Poem by Linda alexander

Death is an unwelcomed guest in the worst timing.
It never felt the vibe of the real humans.
Death plucked the soul as if plucking a fragile flower.
It goes with the soul screaming to stay on earth.

Author's Note

Linda alexander
MT Vasudevan Nair's words I am borrowing here death is a joker who does not aware of the actual part of the life drama( ranghabhoamillathha komaliyannu marannam ) MT said in malayalam language and it is fully saturated to get exact definition of death to
a writer and for me too. Hey death where is your venomous sting, hey death where is your dark monstrous hands, maraname ninte vizhamulla dhamshanamevide? maraname ninte karala khasthanghallevide?

i am always drawn to writing about death, it is also a topic i write about often (subtly giving you a sign to check out my profile :')). i really admire this work, the first line particularly seems to hint that these ideas come from lived experience. my mother passed away this spring: it was unexpected and too soon. so the ideas explored in this verse ring true to me, death is an unwelcomed guest in the worst timing.
i look forward to seeing more of your works in future, i liked this style and blending of cultures.

It's inevitably nearer than one thinks, nothing can stop it.
There's not an ocean deep enough to drown it
Nor a desert in which to lose one's soul

Hopefully reviews are useful, needing to know if what has been offered has been interpreted correctly or if far off the intended??

Yes, death the eternal divider...
No one can really escape it, but we try.
