Death in Life <br /> <br />I’ve always wondered <br />What does the phrase <br />“Death in life” mean? ! <br />Never thought I that <br />Such a state would <br />Ever impose itself on my days <br />And nights, laughter and smiles, <br />Death in life is by all means: <br />To laugh from the throat <br />And the heart is not <br />Sharing the joy, but <br />Shedding tears that hurt, <br />To eat and enjoy food not, <br />To swallow it just to live, <br />To see the one you love, <br />But living the state of being unable to see, <br />To feel his coming near, yet <br />Giving your senses the order not <br />To feel that lovely feeling of his being near, <br />To avoid looking in the eyes <br />For fear tears would <br />Jump on the cheeks, <br />Death in life is the result <br />Of suffering; it is what an innocent <br />Spontaneous faithful heart <br />Feels after the collapse of dreams. <br /> <br /> Jeddah,1989 <br /> <br /> Women with Wings) <br /> <br />published in poemhunter on <br /> <br />14 April,2013<br /><br />nadia abduljabbar<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/death-in-life-3/
