PRAY FOR ME.
Death, who are you?
Are you human or an immortal being?
Do your fist claws strangle to death?
Do you poison and attack or do you maneuver and poison the red blood flowing through every vein of humans?
Why have you chosen to visit my home?
A home of peace and joy.
While I stood outside waiting for his return.
Home, he did come home but he was welcomed with my voice raging for war.
With my fierce anger calling for brutality.
Just a push and he was gone.
What do I do now?
I never wanted to take the joy of living from him.
He was my husband, the father of my children.
What will I say to them?How do I explain his death to them?
I am now locked in a dark four cornered room where I am woken by the smell of urine and faeces.
Prayer they say is the key to all so brethren. I ask that you pray for me so as not to join him in the journey of no return.
Pray for me to be free from this shackle of death.
So I can battle and win over death.
And again feel the cool breeze of life
Even when i know shame will always welcome me
I still crave to be freed.
So pray for me.
