Hanging In Shame - Love Poem by Juhaina Shiraz

Hanging In Shame - Love

Rating: 4.6


These naughty oldies
Have no shame to hide
Why they think it is pride
When one leg in grave and another shaking
Mind is hollow and heart missing some bite.
And still they want to suck the nectar from beautiful flowers.
