Do I cry?
Yes, I do
But when and
Why, don't know
Nor did I
Ever realised.
I did not cry
That my family
Is lost,
I did not cry on
The departure of
My parent.
I did not cry either
When I
Had nothing
To sustain and
I remained hungry
For days.
My eyes brimmed,
When I discern
About autocracies
Against weak and
Deprived.
I felt pain,
Not someone pricked
Me but
Because a bird
Was trapped and
Caged.
Descrying tears of pain
and
Sufferings,
Dejection and frustrations
Hurt and tease me,
Bringing tears
In my eyes.
The one
Close to my heart
Has gone,
Probably not to
Come again
But that also
Did not deter
Me much.
Those who left
Did nothing
New but
Chasing
Their ordained,
So why lament?
Persons who left,
Things of possessions
Are glittering sparkles,
Shining and fading
Give joy and pain
But momentarily.
I shed tears
Thinking about the
Bounties,
Almighty has
Granted me
And becoming
Overwhelmed.
The Supreme Soul,
Kind and benevolent
Given me an
Opportunity to live
And thank Him,
Realizing it
I sobbed.
Raising hands
before the unseen but
Universal,
I pray Him
To forgive me
For my sins
I committed unknowingly
Or deliberately.
