The Choice Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

The Choice



Were there a choice
Between you and my family
Mine will be ‘you’.

Were there a choice
Between you and my wealth
Mine will be ‘you’.

Were there a choice
Between you and beauties
Mine will be ‘you’.

Were there a choice
Between you and kingdom
Mine will be ‘you’.

That much you are dearer.
Could you be kinder?
Could you be a crusader?

Me, you arrested, shackled,
Captivated and at the end
Imprisoned for life.

Undo your sins
Before I sink
