MADE FOR EACH OTHER

POEM

When they were alive

they were made for each other.

Both did have a sense

of safety while they were together.

Many a couple 

nursed a feeling

of envy towards them.

Time never waits.

And when they got aged
first to go to heaven was she.

Her heart-broken husband

 felt like an orphan

abandoned by his parents

in a vast desert where deadly heat

thrust needles of fire

into his skin.

Everyday, every minute, 

every second her picture

loomed large in front of  him.

And the shock, the void he felt

must have been the reason

behind his death within a short period.

Or his sweetheart

must have

appeared  before him

and beckoned him to join her

in the heaven.

Now that they have

evolved into stars

appearing in  the blue sky.

Whether they are

together now and

enjoying their

life in the  heaven nobody knows.

How can we know

their whereabouts

far away in heaven?
