Oh god!
Great gracious god,
Let you have some mercy on me
And let me forget all my past,
Snatch away all the memories
Dumped inside that two halves of brain,
Some full of tears, some wet with sobs…
Clear away all the junkies…
Scrape warehouse memories of ancient times,
Take away…take away every thing from me…
All…all those, the good, the bad, and ugly…
Oh God! Let me start all afresh…
With a memory…
With a life….
The memory of a new born babe
And the life of a new paraffin candle...
I would burn myself out…
Though for a little, very little span of time...
Try to illuminate the unnumbered darkness scattered everywhere…
And, at the same, store some memories of my own chosen one…
The new light would burn till it can,
The new babe would gather knowledge till it may…
Then again, both of us…
Will die and wait for another birth…
We should wait eagerly on the edge of Lethe
For some new perception...
For some new illumination…
But more than that…
May be long for another new life…
And may be some lives after life!
