Disease Called Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Disease called
Sunday,14th July 2019

It is a deadly disease
and may make me cease
with life not at an ease
all people stare at me and tease

I have some more years to go
as it shows
no sign of recovery
I pray lord daily

"follow me nowhere
as I fear
last breath in the near future
you leave me alone dear

I was stunned with her confession
and cautioned me for an obsession
to have a close relation
and later on, suffer from the dejection

she was free and frank
and sincerely thanked
for remaining so close
and chose her as a trusted ally

I realized what an attachment can play
and make you stay
with so much comfort
and not allow to worry with the disturbing reports
