Fading my beauty while I am still
a child
Sworn in as a Queen of packs of
anti-retroviral drugs
Man made cells at war front
against the virus
Dynamically changing my body size
From losing weight to gaining
fake obesity
Driving smiles miles away
Never to be such grasped again
Tears rain forever in my soul
Continually flooding suicide
thoughts on my mind
Just living for my parents’ sake
Crawling to the western veranda; morning
Clinging on helping backs to the
tree feet; at noon
Cuddled in helping arms to the
eastern veranda; afternoon
Carried into the house; evening
A baby man and woman
Surviving as the scale balancing
my parents life
To school me for the little life
I have
Where I get laughs at my coughs
Stress always on my sail
I fail to completely solve the
problem
This journey so sorrowful
sounding
