From This Pain Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

From this pain
Friday,3rd April 2020

I wish and pray
for staying healthy again
it eats me from within
such a trauma I have never seen

not people alone
I too feared about the cyclone
it uprooted everything
and it was severe blow for all human beings

but this Corona is killing
innocent, aged and children or all human beings
who are unprepared to face
and face onslaught of unknown chase

God save me
and make free
from such virus/disease
I don't to be ceased

My throat is choking
as if burning after smoking
lungs get strained
and stands pained

"take me away" from this pain
I want to remain same again
go out for helping unfortunates
and relate my own story
