Nearly Was Last Journey
As life flows like a river
the banks of the river also give way.
no boatmen dare come closer
as much as to share
a minuscule hand of love
Life gradually surges
the speed of the heart hastens
is the estuary yet far away
someone say
mind beckons
the river of love
hastens
to merge with its mummy ocean
do they merge tonight
let us see
come besides me
Style / type:
Free verse
Review Request (Intensity):
I want the raw truth, feel free to knock me on my back
Last few words:
At times we wonder whether 'tis our last

Hi, lovedly, I like poems
Hi, lovedly, I like poems about rivers that flow and all the imagery in your poem. I just wonder about using "mummy ocean"? Is it meant for a child?
No other nits, enjoyed, Gracy
