Death to Life

On that natal day came death

A new life born out of  both;

A misery for the mortal,

A mystery for the immortal

Ups and downs await the mortal

But misery need not always follow;

What awaits the immortal, one knows not;

May it  remain a mystery for the mortal

What lies ahead is not in the hands of the mortal

Neither is what lies beyond;

If death is the birth of a new life,

I wish you  blithesomeness

Smile

For ten years, I had almost forgotten who you were,

Until you suddenly popped online;

All the childhood memories recalled

What happend during those ten years?

I do not know, but it feels good to be in touch again;

The clock is ticking and the days are passing by

Its been roughly two years since the re-discovery;

The past twelve years have brought us up to adulthood,

But my memories of you are still from those childhood days;

Things came by beyond our expectations,

What lies ahead of us, we cannot judge;

But I can never imagine your loss,

Nor will I ever understand;

My friend, all I can offer you is my prayers

Twelve years may have gone by,

But I still remember the sweet smile of that kid;

Do smile for Him too

My Yellow Rose

My yellow rose

Did I even know what it meant?

They say it represents-

Friendship, Joy, Gladness,

Sunshine, a new beginning,

And jealously;

I never knew it all,

But it was my sunshine;

Remember that funeral bouquet we delivered?

It was also yellow;

Wish I could relive it,

Except for the funeral

Yellow roses, I always loved them,

Yellow roses, I love them still,

Yellow roses, I will always love them,

But I never thought I'd turned it towards the grave;

My yellow rose

I never imagined I'd lay it on your eternal cradle;

My yellow rose

You were my sunshine,

You still are;

Wherever you are

Wherever you may be;

I will  keep on laying yellow roses on your six feet under
