I had my sleeping pills in my hand <br />MJ died last night <br />Nothing but pills were found in his stomach <br />I have sleeping pills which are now banned <br /> <br />My father waited for me to talk <br />But I kept my cell switched off <br />The last two days I did not sleep <br />MJ was so great, I had miles to walk. <br /> <br />My friends, my poor friends <br />All of them wanted me to come back <br />I had sleeping pills in my hand <br />I stood dumb on the dock. <br /> <br />My hands shake feebly, my throats went dry <br />My tongue hangs black <br />Darker becomes my vision, as <br />Banging soul thumbs my eyes. <br /> <br />Don't die, don't leave us <br />There is no such sound splashing the silence <br />In my room, <br />The sea has entered my soul <br />The waves of grief roar all around.<br /><br />Ratan Bhattacharjee<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-sea-of-grief-entered-my-soul/
