Grief

Tue, 05/04/2021 - 23:04 -- HB Rita

Everyday, 

I used to return home with your affection  

Today I just came back with lamentation

No idea how you are taking it

You might think, I am upset

Not at all, not at all

You know, 

I swallowed the emotion long ago

Addition and subtractions are no longer

counted by the wrong equation 

Now walk barefoot

It doesn't hurt.

In ancient times they also walked

Still walking,

I don't know if it's lacking or not

Why do we have to know everything?

Has science yet discovered the mystery of 

human creation?
