She Poem by Aminath Neena

She

Smiles



Touches their hearts

Wipes their tears

Listens to their fears

Warms their hands

Walks with them

Plays with them

Laughs with them

Cries with them

Destroys the evil from their path

Brushes the cobwebs from their minds

Talks to them

Sits with them

Attends to their calls

Pays their bills

Sends them texts

Lifts their spirits

Fills their life with joy

Drives away the melancholy



But



At the end of the day



She



Is greeted

By

Two pillows, a bolster

And

An

Empty bed.
