On her deathbed

Here lies she

on her death bed

Dangling between life and death

In a dilemma of shattered hopes

Memories saturated with

Infidelities, hostilities

and deception

Who doesn’t fear death?

And indubitably she is afraid to die

And yet not keen to breathe alive

I can see that she is broken

She is consciously unconscious

she weeps and she cries

if only sobs and tears could touch hearts

if only grief could mend ways

She was never sick

Her health never betrayed her

Happiness was all that she sought in life

Smiles always donned her happy face

Till the blows of infidelity knocked her cold

She lost her senses then and called it quits

Seeking death that was even unwilling to come

And thus her life hangs between death and living
