Death. Death, won’t you come here?
I am searching for a friend
Meet me halfway if you can
Do not wait till the end

I’m pretty sure we’ve all looked for death, but it’s the easy way out. Keep on moving forward and meet death as a bad-ass when that time comes.

This is a great poem — I’m just not fond of the subject (hah-hah)!

Death said
Don’t call for me,
Solanki,
with each word you waste your breath
I’m not a malevolent being,
from a cause I’m an effect
You always antagonize me,
Try to triumph over my will
Can’t you see that I don’t stalk you,
I wait… in time, at the end of your life,
and I stand still
With each second you’re alive you take a step closer to me,
Nothing’s set in stone,
I’ve been forced to pickup early
Does this scare you?
Here’s a fact: I don’t always take you when it’s not your time to go.
Eventually, I’ll pick you up,
(after what I hope is a long, happy, life)
gently, like an old friend
Don’t fight it then, I’m inevitable
But what you can do,
with the time you have left
is to use
those years, wisely

Beautiful Frank.
I wrote a poem with similar theme a few months back titled Last Request to a Long Lost Friend. If you have time, check it out sometime.

Love all your poetry but this awesome, so much meaning in such few words. If I had to use a single word to describe it…pithy.
Thanks for the inspiration, I might have to experiment with poetry soon…

Your poetry is beautiful don’t give up on it, calling for death. I only wrote this because I have lost a great artist due to his own call to death and would not feel right if I didn’t tell you how talented you are and how much the world would miss without your art. Maybe this piece is not a true cry for death and in that case, carry on. 🙂
