A Shoulder To Weep Poem by Colonel Muhamad Khalid Khan

A Shoulder To Weep

Rating: 5.0


Depressed and dejected with relations attitude
I bent on a wall, I wept in solitude
All relations are full with vested inrterest
Agony and pain at times just burst
I curse my self, I stay alone
But I do fumble in a low tone
What is this world what are these humans
Who do nothing but give sermons
On love and affection while full with hatred
Keep the venom of a snake in butter and bread
In this cruel world one has to keep
A shoulder to weep with wound so deep
Then God comes in with mercy to extend
Then one is protected when one has to bend

A very poignant poem Col., when we are hurt so deeply, we do need someone in our lives who will let us cry on their shoulders. A caring and compassionate person to stand by us through it all. I feel your pain - I bent on a wall, I wept in solitude - it is very difficult to be alone in times like this. God is the only one in the end to extend mercy on us, as it protects in times of sorrow.

An impressive poem Colonel Sahib, when wound is so deep everyone needs a shoulder to weep, in absence of a shoulder we remember God who gives rest to our body and peace to our soul. A nice write.
