It’s a different world from where l come from In this world men open car doors And women walk the pets what a different world From the one l grew up in We both do the groceries and why not the cooking? Could a world be this different? I had only nursed my fantasies With precious glimpses on the internet But then fate thrust me in that world By circumstances far from funny I sacrificed all I had to try my luck in this new world It so happened that l was ready to overcome my threatening insanity And do all it takes to adapt to my new world l am glad to say l must have come a long way And that this different world is indeed my current world
It’s such a hard-hitting reality when we see the world of two extremes. Thought-provoking:)
Thanks V, it really hit me hard yesterday and I thought a poem would be subtly captivating. 🙂
It sounds as if you are adapting to and enjoying your new world. I’m glad for you.
