Islamic Poem on Death

on Friday, April 13, 2012

Eyes stare brightly whist staring into the ceiling
Veins cringe and take their last breathe of oxygen
Call it intoxication of air when you are being refused it
As gasping becomes heavy.

Heart rate lowered dramatically,
I have no more heart

Brain becomes frozen,
I have no control over it..for it is not mine
Chills go up and down my spine
How perfect our body’s function, how divine

Ignorant of this day that I must face
When the consequences of my actions no one can wipe away
Stone reaction on my face
I suffer the feeling of guilt in my heart
But too late to change it, as my mind thinks faster than my heart rate
I cant believe how long I have left myself living in such disgrace
Ignorant of the reality
Ignorant of this place
We call world
Disingenuous of the canopy that covered my eyes
Take the last few breathes of air before I realise
That I have come to my demise
Come to the day where the next time I rise
Shall be in judgment of the life and I cannot disguise

I don’t want to let go!
I had too many plans
yet to accomplish yet to fill in my hands
visions of wealth when I can buy all of which that I wanted without ever holding out my hands
to ask for help
not only that of people but that of my Lord

I shall stand in shame in front of him
Cannot fight a lost battle
There’s no tongue and no sword
No rewind button, no next-door ward
With a difference choice playing strings of a different cord

My journey is over
Body is frozen
Eyes stare brightly whist staring into the ceiling
Veins cringe and take their last breathe of oxygen
Call it intoxication of air when you are being refused it
As gasping becomes heavy.

Heart rate lowered dramatically,
I have no more heart

Is it He Who giveth life and who taketh it and to Him shall ye all be brought back. (56)(Surah Yunus in the Quran)
