When I was young
my mother used to tell me
don't worry
everything will be all right.
I went for my job interview
and did not make through.
All they said was
don't worry
everything will be all right.
How I believed those words
till late in my life
thinking
that whenever they said
everything will be all right
It will be all right.
Today I walk back home
carrying my mother's report
I am thinking
how would I tell her
she has six more months.
And I reach home
All that I am able to say is
don't worry
everything will be all right.
Very nice, Roohi
ReplyDeleteAs I read through your lines
ReplyDeletetime and again
I, breathe in your pain
Life is so simple
yet so twisted
We embrace an idea
to find out it's rusted
I still want to believe
your mother is right
Don't worry
everything will be alright .
awsm!!
