Vanquisher of Death

One day Heaven summoned my name,
And I went fly away,
Confronting with DEATH I paused
For a while ;
Horrors of it closely I felt,
I began to trembling
As DEATH unfolded its black
Face:
I was unsure of what to say,
Still I dared to ask:
"O DEATH, why are you so brutal?
Why do you snatch the beloved one?"
Upon hearing my voice, He
Roared like the lion kneading me
And I tried
To loose the stranglehold
At my neck.
He suffocated me brutally,
It seemed heavy clouds came
Flying and perched on my head,
Nothing I could see-
But darkness all around.
Oh, how terrible it was!
Still I would insist on consistency
Of my confidence and I silently
Underwent all that pain.
At sudden, DEATH minimized
His tyranny on my spirit
And I got free from any kind
Of danger,
I cried out with endless joy
And all because I dared.
