I am alone,
In this dark small cabin,
Weeping and waiting,
For my family outside,
To walk away from me.
I am not,
They should worry about,
But themselves.
They are not,
I should worry about,
But myself.
They still can,
Choose and act,
I only can,
Stay still.
They will come back,
To my place,
Through different paths,
They will move,
From my place,
To different paths,
So will I.
All will meet,
Yet Everybody,
Will be Alone.

"To walk away from me" how come this suit in that stanza? you are waiting for someone to walk away? I didn't get it.
ReplyDeletevery nice post, btw.
That has a deep meaning: :)
ReplyDeleteIn islamic Tradition, when one buries the dead, and when the family and frnds after burying goes back home, they only move 40 steps from the grave when angels come to the grave and start Q&A session...
So he is waiting for the Q&A session to start....
