Who Will Stand For Me?

Posted on 31 Aug 2024 by Suneet Madan

"In those unearthly hours of the night, 
When you rush to the hospital in pain
By treating you, I stand nothing to gain
Yet, I dodge my rising fears and fright,
To give your agony a soothing respite
Only to become a victim to an insane
Yet, to save my honor and life, you abstain
Why can't you act on seeing my plight?"

"A humble man, I can only mourn for you
It's ingrained in me to mutely go my way 
Most my life is spent standing in a queue
Watching the powerful expand by the day
If I dare to claim witness, I'll be slain too
For your soul to rest in peace, I can pray."
