Allow me

a poem by Prabindh Sundareson

Allow me
To walk the moon
Show it won’t fall soon
To bring the stars near
And be in the light so dear
To talk to you
Show I am there for you
Speak your doubts to me
However unfounded they may be
Let me not be your enemy
The vagaries of the mind
Play tricks of the bad kind
Just let us walk away
From the land of the dreaming
To the land of the living
Just
Allow me

(An ode to all care-takers of people living with Schizophrenia)
