White SOMETHING I LOOK AT-159 BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOH

White SOMETHING I LOOK AT-159
BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY

LET ME SILENTLY WITHER AWAY

Before someone tells me
it is time and I must quit,
let me leave the centre stage
making space for someone more fit.

Before they stop talking,
let me talk to myself,
listen to my voice,
make me my best friend,

Let me learn to keep quiet.
With no takers to what I say,
let me value the beauty of silence
and remain within myself

Let me silently wither away
I know am not of any use to anyone,
don't have enough strength and will
to carry on my shoulder someone else.

Let me accept the reality
Neither I can help nor accept,
nor can I teach and advise or
listen to someone's idiocy and high handedness

Before the world leaves me
where I have been, let me withdraw
from all that I loved, endured
and fancied more than my love and life.

Let me not forget
I am still alive and someone needs me.
We are to live the last part of life
with ease and dignity

Let me be with my love
who carried my smile and tears,
love and frustration over the years
without caring for her own

She can not see me reduced to a nonentity,
a man without dreams.
Let me live till I am alive
with passion and dignity

If not for me
For someone who loves me,
for whom I am larger than life
and relationship.
