Tears at Dawn
written by: Saila Abby
The days of should-have-beens
A reminder of what once was
Far cry from what will be
If man were resilient,
he would taste from the streams of immortality
The ancients sang in days gone past
Not knowing the woes
That should befall the
Common man
I shudder at the erratic ways of youthfulness
A bile spewed
From realms beyond times
As if in recompense for the sins of the father
Ah! laugh at he that mocks
For his calamity is but a step away
Not knowing the days of mankind, the offspring
Ponders at the endless tirade
Of a disturbed generation
Will it end?
The belly of the earth bends in sorrow as another hapless one is sown in it
