A Hole in the Heart

Sorrow !

Sorrow and lament,

agony forebearing,

an untimely end.

Visions flash by,

as life seeps through my eyes,

I see myself in past,

an ocean of memories,

spread far and vast.

I see my childhood,

I see my first step,

I hear my first cry,

my first peaceful nap.

I groan as it fades,

something burns inside my chest,

I slip into oblivion,

my heartbeat put to test.

I dream of my family,

my brother, my parents,

I hear people murmur,

is this sound of my friends ?

I am awake again,

I see my peers around,

they call out to me,

strange, I can't hear a sound !

I speak silent words,

as all goes in vain,

I can't feel a thing,

just this endless pain.

If you can hear me speak,

take down my final message,

I beg of you, deliver it to my home,

as my soul has found its passage.

Tell my mother that I loved her,

more than words can tell,

my brother, I'll never forget him,

even if i suffer hell.

Tell my father that I always wanted,

to fulfill all his dreams,

I shall carry his pride, his valor,

to the higher realms.

And of the other, tell them,

the reason I shall depart,

I die of your ignorance, your subjection,

of a hole in my heart......
