A Song

A song that plays in my mind
I do not know how to portray it
that sings the eternal tunes of life.
A song that depicts the face of a child
who is homeless and nowhere to set out
a song that reflects the sad faces of the elderly ones
whose spawns left them to die alone
a song nurturing the newly born
who is set free to face life’s challenges
a song humming the elegies of a woman
who rests in the fire of misery
a song characterizing the image of a man
who quenches his lust by means of a naives body
a song stimulating the pain of the lovers eyes
whose love departed to fulfill his obligations
leaving his beloved behind
a song still unknown
of life’s’ imminent episodes
whether merry or heartbreaking
the song shall still play
the eternal tunes of life.
