Now that you are not-you by Rosie Garland ( After Guardian)

 

Now that you are not-you by Rosie Garland  ( After Guardian)

 

 

Doctor comes in majestic

with his stethoscope  hanging around

with a  concerned look of smile;

a hand on  patient’s wrist

watches the time; There is Time

for one and all, Time does not yield,

though it is the best healer;

 

yes, he is in the last  lobs, breathing tough,

his rough hands slowly falling down,

face in the web of unconscious state,

eyes on the sunken cheeks for a closure

half willing to open and locate  the

whereabouts of loved ones;

perhaps dying embers already on him.

 

 

Is  it the Breath going away

or soul craving for its special

assigned forum, selecting its

own gathering; It merges with

the universal, the otherness

on the other world. Death

bidding farewell to the loving , caring.
