A letter
My bent shoulders can no more bear
the pain of missing you everyday
My eyes are closing due to drowning skinfolds
longing to see a glimpse of you before going to rest
Your thoughts have girdled around my mind
letting it to think of nothing else
My twilight years are engrossed in isolation and misery
and restlesness for you to come
It's not cold here, but my hands still shiver while writing you this
as this may be the last one
I understand that you had a sound logic of putting me in an old age home
but unlike your promises you never visited
Hoping this letter to reach the right address this time
- Your father
