Lockdown Diaries Nominee#42 Corona Warriors- Soumyadeep Khan

Death is an intriguing affair,
No one knows what it bears.
We all roam carrying a facade,
Of rich and poor running roughshod.
Now I ponder staring at the star,
What will cease this self-created war.
Whom to blame or be flawed?
This is something hoisted by one’s own petard.
Holding on to a threshold to live and be loved;
Hoping desperately to not be shoved.
It will hurt to stay and see you wither away,
But you won’t be there to save the day.
So, I say… Let’s cherish this time of togetherness;
We never know when we will lose them,
Or they will lose us someday.
Now it’s never the right time to say goodbye,
In the end… We all have to die!
