The Great Depression.

Drove fast my Buick…was late so, had to be really quick

It was the black Tuesday, luck tripped…and I was given a pink slip

My heart stopped beating… I was filled with aggression

Before I could act…someone told ….world is under Pandemic of the Great Depression.

Andrew’s photo next to the window…reminds me he is dead and I am a war widow

With nothing left now, just 2 children…I decided to move to my homeland Britain.

Life is miserable…it’s such a pain…with no money; we cannot even board a plane.

This life is very constrained…my agony peaks when I think I need to start all over again.

Everyday I give an interview (but Fails)…..only to seek chances that are very few

I really want to move forward….but the wretched time is acting like a statue

They say everything will be alright…they day dream and their thought is so untrue

My loneliness kills me every second….there is no one to abuse…with whom should I argue... Do you have a clue?

I think of getting married again…I am still pretty, I can get a nice man but no one could be Andrew.

Bad fortune would chase me to the grave

Devil of depression rules the world and I feel like a slave

But I will fight back and I won’t hide in any cave

My Children are proud of their mother…they say she is really brave

What future holds for me? This thought is costing me dear

I am thoughtless…pillows get wet every night…my misery accompany them with lot of tears

My will keeps me afloat...it says….you won’t sink there should be no fear

I would do everything in my ability…I must win…my thought is crystal clear.

I swear to my children…I will chase away this bad Omen.

I cannot accept defeat…I am egoistic and a strong woman.

Would work hard all day…all night…in every season.

Would even plough rock…doesn’t matter if it’s barren

I wish to see my roses (Children) blossom…God will you help?

I want turn this desert into a Garden.

Otherwise. A nice guy.

I remember I gave his mother an advice.

You just cannot manipulate him with any device

I told her not twice but thrice…he is simple but someone who likes spice

Honest from heart, kind inside. To be precise

A really nice guy but otherwise…..

A few days ago, I attended his engagement…his parents made an incorrect judgment

Though he loves the girl but then she is just She…he doesn’t mind any provocative attention as long as it’s Free

She is his but now old…he is quite bold…so he went onto see another girl…erotic feelings he could not hold

He said it was a stroke of luck,just a stroke. He did not do anything wrong,just helped a girl who was really broke (ha ha ha).

One night stand is pretty justified…I gave her lot money…he said it with a smirk eventually cheating on his honey

I was not into contradiction..it was his sheer addiction…with a gentle vice

He is a nice guy I know but otherwise…

One day I saw his father arguing with him, never saw the old man before in such a grim

A lot of cash was stolen…his room was ransacked…even the safe was broken

John love cars, girls, he likes fame…Old man was screaming at him…quite obvious is his blame.

He loves spending money in derby, a game that was introduced to him by his honey his fiancée Miss.Jane Kirby

Later he admitted… said he is a rookie… he lost all the money in derby……he was befooled by a bookie

Very clean, very clear….I must say honesty has no price

He is a genuine guy I should say but otherwise.

He has no bad habits other than drinking which he likes to get indulged in till his gait becomes swinging

Despite losing every time…likes to play poker…turns to bezique…people still call him a joker

In the same Casino at that night …he saw Miss. Kirby holding someone really tight

He could hardly talk,he could hardly walk..still went to the bar and said…give me a large…that too on the rocks!!

He turned around…shot her down…it brought end of his ugly showdown

I asked him why he did that…he replied hunk…I don’t know but I was too drunk…

Oh My God!! To my surprise ….to my horror

He said Miss. Kirby was holding him…He saw that in the mirror

How can someone be so honest?? How? I remember I gave his mother an advice.

She loves her son too much…considered him wise...

That makes me say he is honest, kind, genuine guy………….. but otherwise.
