ME:
Saw her again, passing by the street;
Had opportunity to meet
Graceful she; radiance on her face
All of a sudden, fear made me retreat.
If you had helped me a little more,
O God!
I would have felt blessed!
But you helped me less;
If not, I would not have been speechless!
GOD:
Don’t blame me, kid
For the mistake you did.
The rain had passed, the sun was bright
I did everything to help you with my might.
ME:
If you had helped me no less
Tell me, my Lord! Why was I speechless?
GOD:
I can’t answer that
When in doubt,
Ask your heart.
ME:
Tell me, O Heart!
Why do I crave
To be with her
But fear
Whenever she is near?
HEART:
Lub-dub-lub-dub-lub-lub-dub-dub-lub-dub
ME:
And the heart goes on
Beating.
I can’t understand
What it’s saying!
O God! Teach me
The language of the heart.
Where are you, O God?
Where have you gone
Leaving your child alone?
I know you left.
I know I should do it myself.
I’ve the problem;
I’ve the solution.
However, I’m distressed,
Stressed
But well dressed!
So that I can hide
My inabilities
And my problems
That are not getting less.
I stare at a wall alone
And speechless!
