I asked her how she was
‘’Not good ‘’she answered
What happened, I said next
She said nothing in answer
What could be the reason?
I pondered and pondered
Had she any want
Or had she any specific demand
Was there any scarcity of love and care?
Or was she frighten for the social security?
Then what did she want
Was it my blood she wanted to suck?
Nothing I found
And I bewildered
She was possessed by the fear
Why there is the darkness in the corner
What is the meaning of life?
Why it is so mysterious
She was a bit puzzled by the riddle
What was surprise and what was wonder?
