Afterlife
by Hafeez ur Rehman

Heartache engaging
another wait
and ending up in
sweet exit
is perhaps is my only relish.
 
It reminds me
of that math test
which beats me
in deep slumber
without fail.
 
The relish of
getting over with
and caring two hoots
for all those                     
calculations in life.
 
Nothing to do with
remorse or a faint wish
to call it a day
including an eye
on possibilities
 
I am through with counting
mercies and taking stock of sins.
I am through with memories,
mementos and folded
letters full in caution.          
 
I am through
with poems, a dozen dreams
of us and me and you.
I am even through
with afterlife in fact.
