Neighbour

Neighbour Subas Khanal A storm of crisis swept through my home The neighbor looked uncooperative Instead, he blocked the way to my house Those who come from afar There was no way to come my house The crisis was over he threw the definition of neighbour However, I did not complain This year again Another crisis drove the gun Both of us were scared He was resourceful I am resource-less The crisis got a little worse for me I was moving at my own pace He thought it was an opportunity He remembered it was the time to squeeze my neck He thought this was the time to fight me And he began to grab the land I was on And tried to bring an earthquake on my face oh my Neighbor It's enough Remember; When the escape route is closed - Though he is child of man he fights with lion.

poetry sometimes offer us the outlet to rid ourselves of angst. Your situation is captured well, lets hope there is divine intervention and a pleasant resolution.
