I Cry Poem by Warden Vukeya

I Cry

Rating: 5.0


A closer look at my penury life
I cry from deep inside
I beg from deep inside
I beg not to have it all, but for sufficiency
A closer look at my garden, my seeds gone to waste
Day by day, they brag, I beg
In the lake of wealthy, they sink, I seek
This everlasting down-at-heel, so dreary
I cry from deep inside,
Not to have it all but for sufficiency
This dreck life I am living
The rejection I Feel
I cry for no more hunger pangs
I cry not to have it all, but for sufficiency

Just sufficiency is enough. I see.
