Awaken Poem by Mustafa Ghuneim

Awaken

Rating: 5.0


What will you do, If you woke up one day,
Find that you're lonely, no one by your side,
Find your tv set is broken, and sun ray is less,
In your microwave mice hide,
and your room is in a complete mess?

What will you do, If you woke up one day,
Find none around, no wife, no mother, no son!
A house which is empty of life,
and no other way you go to,
What will you do when there is nothing left for you?

You question yourself, finding no answers,
Desperation eats your life like cancer,
You look in the mirror, to find a man you dunno,
Left the disease take over your soul,
Can you believe the life you went through?

The memories in your skull, leaves you dead,
and a pile of hair growing over your head,
Remembered what your ex-wife said,
Dun you know what she meant back then?
and she didn't mean it as an offend,

- 'I can't live with you, I can't continue this life,
Your dreams became so impossible,
and your laziness became your thrive,
whether you go back to work and live as people live,
because it is not by words, but dreams are by wills.. '

So what will you do, If you woke up on day,
Knew the truth your life rotates around,
The vows your marriage with it was bound,
and this time you stand and your determined to do something,
Your voice become clear, and people hear your sound,

Dead and yet rebirth is one mile away,
You can't find a path to go through,
But you can make yours,
Leave hope prevail this day,
Dun let regret take the last piece of you!
