How To Ask? | Poetry

How to ask?

I do not have how to ask them to sleep quietly,

Without the mosquitoes disturbing their sleep,

Without the heat ripping off the blankets,

How do I tell them to hold on?

How to ask?

They can not bathe,

Not hydrate as they should,

They can not eat well,

How do I tell them to hold on?

How to ask?

They are special people for me,

But they do not have special treatment,

They are only forgotten.

How do I tell them to hold on?

How to ask?

They do not have anything that gets damaged in the fridge,

Because there is no food,

They have nothing to buy,

Because they have not got money,

How do I tell them to hold on?

I can not ask you anything,

I can not give you more,

They have nothing to lose,

They have nothing to gain.

Yes, they are my parents; after a life of struggles, his old age struggles more to maintain hope.
