Mourning
When great souls die,
Yet there is no one to cry,
It's said that the very blue skies,
Turn a little grey,
Oceans rise and fall,
A little more wistfully tall,
Mourning a marked loss,
The world could not convey.
That the sun doesn't rise,
And it comes as a surprise,
To the many that feel blue,
As they spend their day,
Maybe nature knows,
How to really mourn,
The loss of a great soul,
That world could not delay.

Nay a celebrity in my living
You are need to each breath
Entirety left me alone for the tempest
Your warmth felt like motherly
Your love flares up the azure
You are my dear novel
I read you in every chunk of time
Your chats are lyrics to my song
Bringing the best music to my life
I share strange ecstasy with you
In this realm mystics in a twain live
Your are my dear wine
And I am your goblet
A twosome nobody can split
Closeness in distance so long
Like the soft touch in a breeze
An alchemist has found its treasure
A dreamland bona fide
A spirit in triumph in my bosom
When I speak to the Al-Mu'izz
I pray the tale unsaid
Eternal the journey goes on
The Al-Wadud bequeath all lovers bon voyage
Our souls had a conversation
Before our eyes met
My heart is a tangled lock
You open it with the only key
I will shatter like grains of sand
If you ever go away
We walk the long road together
A boulevard to the woods
A desity is there to discover waiting
I wish the road never ends anyway

Peace seeking Mahatma Gandhi,
Passively resistant, held people fondly.
Told them to buy from themselves first,
A Muslim, a Hindu, joined in self worth.

#greatsouls i wish we all live in such a way that this poem would be dedicated to us when we're gone. In shaa Allah!!❤️
Great_souls
When a great man dies,
His respect and value rise.
Everyone understands him more
Though he was left alone when he was alive and bored.
His words would turn into memories...
His actions would turn into documentaries..
He would be gone from the world,
But shall remain close to the hearts
His failures would turn into lessons
And his successes to motivation
Though he has left us all apart

~•mull over, of a man of letters whose hook, line and bait is the pen and mind engineered to demystify the enigmatic world.

When great souls die
Their voices resonate in the void they leave behind,
In the hearts and minds
Of all they touched.
When great souls die
They are welcomed in Heaven,
Embraced in Valhalla,
And sung about in Zion.
But when great souls die
Do they pass as they lived?
Passionate, bombastic, and full of energy?
Or are they quiet, contained, and even unsure?
When great souls die
Do they fret over their loved ones?
Bargain with Death for one more day?
Or do they pay Carrion out of their own pockets, ready for him to row them away?
When great souls die
The whole world sighs and sinks.
When great souls die
Their steps echo from here to forever.

When great souls die a new star blooms in the sky
They never truly leave for their hearts have changed the world
We can feel their presence in the wind
See the transformation on the streets
When great souls die
New ones will be bornReborn

When great souls die
They are never forgotten
Some of them by everyone they are remembered
They die with a message of love
They die leaving the tear in the eye of world
Their life becomes the lessons
Of failures and success
Their life becomes a story that motivates
Those great souls die in pleasure
Happy to lead their life to zero
In this world of mortality
They died being a hero
Teaching the world what life is
And the reasons behind you are alive

I'm burying half of me,
And half of me, I'm building.
Summer will call your name,
And half of my soul will keep burning.
The ocean of my desires weren't my dreams, darling,
Half of my love for you was your yearning.
And when great souls die,
Lovers like you, the shrouds be sprouting
But, when the scars get covered,
Scars like me, the fire keeps raining
I cannot tell u the resf of my tales,
The tales that your eyes have been teaching.

When great souls die and passed away, they left behind a path that they've been walking through the thick and thin of their skin, a void and pains within the hearts of their loved ones that hard to be refilled again, a lesson that life may be long or short but worthy to be remembered.

When great souls die
The ripples don't cease
Their rhythm remains steady
In tiny puddles and vast lakes;
When great souls die
Their shadow takes leave
And their sparkle is free
To dance in sun's gaze;
When great souls die
The trek becomes flight
And they achieve immortality
Through the love left behind.

When great souls die,
It rains, rains and rains,
Because even the clouds cannot bear this pain.
Yet the nature seems refreshing post the rain,
As though the rain was meant to soothe your penury and
To invoke the goodness within you amidst all negative grains.
When great souls die,
Their physical quiddity is not what you miss for weeks,
But it is their benevolent depost that your heart yearns.
When great souls die,
You cannot see them through your naked eyes,
Yet you can feel them around you,
Like a guardian angel wrapping their hands around you,
To always protect you against all odds.

When great souls die
Where does their heart lie
When do the tears stop
Where do we start this new phase
When the shadows of their actions remain
Where do we go to uncover this disdain
When will the pain cease
Where do we go to stop this hurt
When do we start to understand the loss of their presence
Where can we go to heal without pretence
When can we sigh an breath of relief
Where can we go to rest

When great souls die
we feel their existence
in everything around.
Though they have left this world
their soul is still around here
to complete the unfinished tasks.
They leave behind their footprints
as an inspiration to understand
life with the many battles fought and won.
The garland on their photo
spreads the fragrance of their blessings
on us to face the challenges.

When great souls die
The weather becomes quiet
Giving silence as mark of respect
The scattered clouds come together
Making the Sun hide from brightness
Small droplets of water falls from the sky
Which tells that the nature too weeps along
The trees don't move wild with wind
The flowers don't bloom happily
For it has to be laid along with the departed soul
Somewhere they would have touched our heart's
And that's why till eternity,
they hold a place in all of us
The departed soul will get liberation
But those left behind will always have
to bear the grief...

They empty all they are into humanity. They never carry any virtue to the grave, they die empty.#greatsouls#wod#
When great souls die, they die empty.
©lanech11 0 1People will tell you
What they love,
what they want from you.
You respect that and try
to fulfill it, well that's fantastic.
But remember great souls
equally respect what their heart
longs for, what their purpose
demands from them.

Mortal Farewell.
msushil 15w
When great souls die,
Prescriptions fly.
Birds of mind catch them,
But butterfly of heart
Visits the city of one flower
To another
To break
The rule
Of true love.
The souls, so pious
Leave the mortal world
But the libidinous
And living
Soul of mine defies
The prescriptions
To become a devotee
To an evil.
