Poem
They all look happy after school He suddenly lose all that glow after school He now sees reality flashing as the school time end It’s time to back where his roots lays She is also showing signs of sadness For her going back is even harder Far but it’s nothing compare to the pain The pain of looking after her brother His eyes tell the story hidden from his cute face The looks many says he pick from his mother Their parents have passed after a hard fought sickness The same sickness that he is living with Some say their parents were bewitched But she knows the truth as her brother look upon her She is ready to do anything for him like lioness fighting furiously As her mother’s words ring to her ears; ‘Look after your brother’ The days are even longer then months The months are years to them Only Sundays are a blessing to them Playing is not for them as many fear them Consumed by fear all they do is read their books Deprived to associate with other kids Loneliness crept and engulfs them like a dog in the wilderness It’s back to school School for young brains to be nurtured But a child so young with an old brain He too wanted to play and live normally She too would have enjoyed doing her hair Living in a free country yet nothing is free for them Having rights that will not bring food on the table But her father contradicted this thought As he said “always see this as an opportunity to success” Only success can give them the life they envy to live A life of being happy A life of being accepted for who you are Even now they wait and live by the hope The hope of getting this grant money Hoping that their granny will get back Back to their simple and haunting house The house so controlled by fear and shame House that gives birth to pouring tears This is their house and burden for life This is the house with no breadwinner They are the only survivors in this house They will be the corners of this house.
