God is Deaf..
The silence is deafening. Have I become deaf.?
I tried to look beyond my nose...
Shadowy figures, but, who, I do not know..
I want to get up; I want to walk..
I want to hear; I want to talk
I can't; But who can control my thoughts..?
****
Have I neared death..?
Has death neared me in stealth..?
Where will I go..? To heaven or hell..?
Where will I go..? To heaven or hell..?
I don't know; I can't tell..
Meanwhile, let me tally my life-sheet..
Find out if it is sour or sweet....
*****
I am a self-made man
Who thought he can
Whatever I have
Whatever I have
Is my own sweat, I swear!
I have lied, when it suited me
I have cheated, at times for money
Nothing big, that could cause envy
Nothing big, that could cause envy
My life was mostly low-key!
Leave the small things
Catch those big swings
Let me balance them
I don’t have much time..
****
I have killed animals for pleasure
But that is out of life's pressure
I even killed men at times
I even killed men at times
But that is only on defense
I indulged in corruption
But that is done by everyone
I smoke, drank and lived a life of fun
I smoke, drank and lived a life of fun
That did not harm anyone.
Thoughts keep running
I keep pruning
Nothing big seems to be coming
Nothing big seems to be coming
Uh.. what an un-eventful living..?
*****
I keep digging into my mind..
Eh..Eh.. Hold me… I fall into a grind...
The 'I' in me is out of bind..
'A place to rest, 'I' wants to find..
And there someone is…, lying on light
It looks a breathtaking sight..
I stand there, full of fright..
Am I facing the master's might..?
Hold u there, the voice say
Know the place u need to stay
Today is the judgement day
This is the GOD that u daily pray!
Which GOD is this, Iam eager to know
The haze fades and the face glow
All my hopes and dreams blow
Am sure to be condemned by the gallow..
Which man can escape the fury..
When the GOD is you, when u were baby?
So pure, no reason or justification
Understands not, any of my explanation.
*****
The silence is deafening. GOD is deaf.
