Death

I have been trapped in a dark emptiness; 

No realist theory could save me,

The fantasy of fairies favor my going:

Joyous chats of the fireflies keep flickering

The curiosity of hope and joy...

Though timidly, 'tis a light of life!

A huge whiff of demise wipes them off... 

Darkness completely prevails 

Leaving me hopeless,

Stealing away my little smiles, 

Thrusting upon the burden of emptiness; 

Rather than the fear of darkness,

The tiredness of helplessness kills me from within.

Though the light is still alive inside me,

It cannot bring back even a single firefly alive;

Death keeps reminding me - life is uncertain!
