Who's God

A child crying alone
its all so dark
and everyone has gone
whom to call
whom to rely upon
then somebody comes in
and lightens his abode
he thinks to himself
is this the god??

A boy writing a paper
as he proceeds
his heartbeat goes quicker
looks through every question
but not all answers flicker
still thinking very hard
but as answer gives a tiny prod
he looks up and thinks
is this the god??

A man looking at his beloved
lying on the gurney
his hopes beginning to shred
he wants somebody to hold
somebody who will ease his dreads
someone comes and does so
as his heart is about to explode
he looks at him and thinks
is this the god??

An old man dying
he wants his pain gone
he just cant stop praying
he wants an end...
an end to the burning
his heart makes its last beat
and as his hands go cold
he looks up and thinks
is this the god??

I will return



A tingling near my eye
tells me I am about to cry
my breath stuck in my throat
nowhere do my thoughts float

Till the horizon my sight following
I could see that place shrinking
Clutching my chest
not to scream I tried my best

I settled down on my place
mind still frozen with their face
Tears streaming silently
they hugged me eventually

Their words burnt in my memory
"where ever you are, we also will be"
Could not form words then,
I smiled to say i understand

Now dat i realize how far
how long, how apart
I know I will miss them
so I looked out of the window again

I promise to never forget
you'll be in my every second
I promise as soon as I am done,
its to my home that I will return.
