Seconds Before Death

Seconds Before Death

The boy was depressed, and he quits.

He meets the God, on his way to deciding path.

An offer was given to him,

To choose nine lives for a minute during transition;

Where he gets the feel of those souls.


It's a phase before death,

A choice between suffering in earth,

And unknown life after death,

Journey of the soul as follows -

Where the boy lives in each of them,

And feels their soul:


Ant: "Hope no one stamps me."

Elephant: "Hope no one kills me for my ivory."

Serpent: "Hope no one kills for my saliva and skin."

Fish: "Hope no one takes me out of the water."

Tree: "Hope no one slaughters me for construction."

Bird: "Hope I don't meet any accident."

Flower: "Hope no one kills me, for presenting my corpse to others."

Fly: "Hope no one kills me with pesticides."

Boy: "Hope no one takes this decision again."


It is better we struggle with what we have,

In a known world, than quitting!

At least I don't have fear of dying everyday.

He comes back to conscious in the hospital.
