A letter of complaint
was addressed to God
Addressed to heavens
in a sealed envelope
a letter of complaint
waiting to be delivered
the petitioner wrote
about the complaints to the judge
where the judge was accused
complained why was he always screwed
a Complaint of loosing a job
a complaint of loosing the loved ones
a complaint of betrayal of trust
a complaint of being bankrupt
a complaint of mistrust
a complaint of suffering the pains
that almighty had entrust
a complaint of refusal by his love
a complaint of having no food
a complaint of being in poor health
a complaint of diagnosed of a rare disease
All he asked was a simple life
all he wanted his lover beside
all he wanted was a cosy home
all he wanted was a bit of food
alas why is he screwed
since childhood
thrown on roads
ending up in orphanage too
to all those worries
to all those remorse
he walked on the deserted road
meeting his eyes
he saw a hospital entrance beside
a child in dismay looked at the open door inside
he paused to have a conversation with the child
the child was orphaned
The rare disease plagued by world
took the child’s world
yet the child wasn’t in cry
he just replied
I wish we could come sooner here
I wish I could see my angels inside
the man shook inside
he burnt his letter of complaint
he asked for forgiveness inside
you gave me pain
I understand
but I am thankful
you gave me the hope to fight
I could stand while loosing my world
I will find a new job
I will find home
I will work hard
I will look for a sweet lover outside
these words he shouted at sky

- Comment from author about the poem: Today almost felt that nothing I could write…I might loose my streak this time…suddenly tumbled upon an article of a child who lost his parents to deadly COVID…many of us have witnessed the pain of this disease..might have lost some opportunities too..we might have complained too..with whatever we have left, we must thank God to give us the courage to fight
