Poem Title:
Poem
He looks outside the window of the moving train, Watching the dripping pattern, Made by the drops of rain, His mind far away from the present happenings. His eyebrows twitch, As he wonders how he is going to drop the news, To his expectant wife, And four little kids. Retrenchment till further notice... She sits at that bench in the middle of the park, Staring into space, The wind blows strands of misplaced hair into her face, She tries weighing alternatives, Their pros and cons, Let the cat out of the bag, And possibly end two lives, Or simply get rid of the developing one, And save her own... Unexpected pregnancy... C.E.O, Carefully and tactfully engraved, On that wood stamp, He swings on his chair, Enjoying the dizziness that comes with it, Because for a minute or two, It takes his mind from all his worries and care, But fantasy doesn't last long, And he is back to reality. His status and wealth, Couldn't do much for him, He wishes he could turn back time... HIV positive We are lost in our own jungle of worries, Either that or this, Where to get money, love, food, shelter, What to tell him or her, How to change our weight, Height, Complexion, Complaining why things don't go our way, Forgetting someone somewhere, Wishes to be in our shoes, Because their own situation, Is way worse... And from up above He looks, The only thing in His mind...us, Wondering why we couldn't simply trust, Obey... At his feet our burdens lay, Forget what others will say, Ask for His help...control, And in His presence choose to stay, He could do anything for us, We just have to ask... There is no other way... Love.
