Death today

Death today is noiseless.
A few FB posts is all what's left.
A wall that once saw selfies, pledges and status updates
Is now filled with miss yous, condolences and RIPs.

Friends call to pass news,

Sob a little and then move on -
To fill one's own FB wall

With more selfies, pledges and status updates.

If a few servers crash in the west,
Wonder what we'll all have left
To reminisce someone, who once shared with us

A life, a bed, or a cup of tea.

For my hubby!

When tears swell up, turning me blind

He holds me closer with his bright smile.

My trail of nightmares abruptly cease
I close my eyes, leaving his dreams to lead.
