So Soon She Has Gone- A Dirge. (Photo)

Poem: So soon she's gone. (A sorrowful exit)
Poet: Hashim Yussuf Amao

      So soon she's gone.
After months of conceiving pregnancy
After nights of pains and agony
After days of intense weaknesses
After moments of unusual sickness.


Finally, her time has come to put bed
What an expected moment for her to beget
With sweat she's trying to exhibit what naturally has been kept
But so sardonic her efforts was crowned with death.


Hmm, her pains had result in vain
For so soon death has taken her away
Alas, after delivery she kicked the bucket
In labor room her very life ended.


She was never allowed to enjoy what she labored for
Death in no time made her answer the heavenly call
Olympus indeed had fall
So sorrowful, what a tragic world.


With this, for families that have been agonized
May you never encounter such again
And to those who are yet to be victimized
From the ordeal, may your families and loved ones never have a taste.
