Heartlessness Is Beneficial
My husband is hard hearted I am sorry to say
Whenever I am sick
In pain
He just doesn't bother.
Goes to office
Sits and relaxes
He even gives me extra work
I feel hurt and cry.
This is surely not love.
He is selfish
When I tell him on face he is heartless.
It is not right he should help me.
He merely says I love you.
I want you to be strong.
Till now I never understood
But today I realised
Thanks to his behaviour
I can work even when unwell
Most pains I can tolerate
by keeping my mind away from them
If you rest in sickness
If you keep thinking of it
Situation worsens
But with will power
If you get up and work
You automatically feel better
Mind in task at hand
Busy at work
Can really help forget your body ailments
Now unless I am not able to get up from bed
In all other situations I can work
I have become stronger and feel nice about it
Whatever God does is for our good!
