Annamalai Nadarajan

mortal loan

there is a cure for all disease
but not a cure for our mortal end
to god we will always try to appease
but he will take what has been lend

life is merely a simple loan
a loan all of us must pay back
though we will always moan and groan
of this loan god will keep track

the bloody hill

as i stare at the light so brightly gleaming
only one thought runs through my head
"i truly believe I'm not scare of leaving"
as i lay here still in my bed

in hopes of the fruitful afterlife
the one which we all will once seek
i slit my wrists with a knife
and now i am getting very week

the angels soon come to take me away
to a barren and desolate land
we will journey all night and day
"where are we" i will demand

they leave me here atop a red hill
covered with blood and the dead
if only for life there existed a will
i would lay alive in my bed
