Pearl
of Death
-Tariqul Islam Siam
Lonely moon, incessant night.
Too deep the ocean,
Yet divers dive,
What is their ambition,
That transcended life,
I dived and Its colors blinded
me,
Perhaps I did not want to see,
A pearl sparkling at the abyss,
Dare I go that deep?
I did, so did the fish.
In my hands the pearl,
Why is it red?
O blood of mine...
"Don't go" all said
But I love that bloody shine
Little did I know,
How long my blood flow,
It drained my soul
Burnt it like a coal
I ask myself,
To die at the shore resting on
the beach
Or to die seeing that pearl in
the abyss
