Wanted Poem by Akhtar Jawad

Wanted

Rating: 4.9


Peace of mind,
And,
Love of a friend,
To remain forever,
For a restless life!

A lonely man,
Who faces hysteria,
Of all concerned,
A singular man,
Dictated by all,
Misbehaved by all,
Cheated by all,
Deceived by all,
Who is always wrong!
And can't be right!

In response to this ad,
Only one application,
Was received by him,
The applicant stated,
Dear Sir,
A chance of service,
You may give to me,
I assure you, sir,
You will not regret,
My appointment,
If made,
Sincerely yours,
I am your death!

Appointment letter was issued,
But the lovely candidate,
Hasn't joined yet,
The thankless job!

When people are tired of life, they often wish to invite death! But at times even Death refuses to come to their service! There are many such miserable cases when he seems to have deserted some and they languish in pain and despair! You have invited the attention of the readers to a great issue confronting the invalid! Great write!
