The Constant Weep. Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

The Constant Weep.



I weep
That my mother doesn’t know that I weep
Over my neglect of her in her last days.

I weep
That my father doesn’t know that I weep
For my negligence showed in his last days.

The time
I redeem myself of this constant grief
My children will be there to follow suit.

How things we take for granted become precious in death.
