When death arrives
the breadth stops
The lips quiet
Eyes closed
Cheeks prominent
Giving the looks of a statue
The eternal message of godWhen death arrives
the wind stops to move
the man starts yearning
remembering the beautiful memories
birds giving a sad tune
for the people we are immuneBut then I asked God
'why to meet and then to depart
is the saddest tale of a human heart...'
God was quiet
I looked with my sightI felt the caress on my hair
It was no one but the father of Heavens
'I sent my soul through the invisible for what man is profited; a body is the guest chamber of the soul and a never dying soul is fit for the sky '
The body turns to ash but the remembrance of man is left
