Wanderer

Wandering aimlessly searching for where to go

When you feel you reached your destination

You have to stop the search there

If you dont stop or you are not welcome there

You will always be a wandering soul

Without finding the inner peace. 

Oasis

When you wander in a desert searching for the elixir

From the distance you will find an oasis waiting for you

An oasis which is going to satiate all your thirst

An oasis which will welcome you with all its heart

An oasis you finally call it as your home

With all your energy you go towards that 

believing you finally reached your destiny. 

When you are near to it, and if it is yours

You will exhilirate and immerse yourself there

Finally resting at the place you belong. 

But if it is just a mirage

You will lose all your energy to travel further

You just let the desert subsume you 

and become part of the desert you want to escape

Dignity in dying

We all strive to lead a dignified life

Dignity plays a major role in our day to day life

Dignity in earning

Dignity in relationships

Dignity in growing old

When we grow old

When our health doesn't cooperate

When we require others for basic bodily needs

When we lost all hope for an independent life

When we are at the mercy of others

The dignity is stripped away layer by layer

And 

We are left naked, both body and soul. 

So where is dignity in dying? 

Is it embracing death contently

That I lived mine and you live yours. 

Is this the way of showing dignity to the living

that the end is not fearful. 

Caregivers

We ensure that we emphasize

The dignity while living.

But what about

Dignity in dying?

Why we are reluctant to 

Send our dear ones in a dignified way

Why we just prolong their life? 

Which is Invasive and painful to them

Why We are unable to let them go? 

Are we unable to cut the emotional bonding

Or

Are we emotionally stable by holding on to them

Or 

Our life's meaning is dependent on them

Or 

Are we conditioned to feel guilty for letting them go

Why can't we make their last journey

Painless, dignified, emotinally less draining and soul enriching to them as well us. 

Dignity in dying is as important as dignity in living
