Poetry: Dying

by Shiv Sengupta

Created on: April 07, 2009

The Song Without a Sound




Last night I woke up from a dream

And watched the Moonlight softly stream

In, streaks of silver silence all around.

And with her silent melody

The silver Moon, She beckoned me

To listen to the Song Without a Sound.




And lying there I knew the day

Had come when it was time to say

Farewell and to prepare myself for death.

A Moonbeam fell across my face

A gentle kiss of Moonlight grace

I closed my eyes and took a final breath.




And as the Moon began to sing

I felt the world and everything

Inside, begin to fade and disappear.

Till naught remained but Her and I

Suspended in a starlit sky

As She whispered silver secrets in my ear.




Enchanted, in Her spell I lay

And felt my soul being whisked away

To places that my eyes would never see.

We danced together through the night

On winged feet that took to flight

For distant dreams beyond Infinity.
