Heartache Poem by Ruta Mohapatra

Millions affected, millions bereaved
The heart aches at all places
Eyes cannot turn blind
The mind cannot be closed
Feelings cannot be dulled

An unknown fear is ever present
Who knows whose turn will come next?
Who knows whose tears will flow next?
Who knows whose dreams will vaporise?
Who knows, who knows, who knows? ? ?

All faculties are battle ready
The mind plans unknowingly
Work need to be finished
Loose ends need to be tied
The journey may start anytime!
