AIDS day


AIDS the testing faith
Of people of various belief
Come together to share
What our fellow beings get inflicted
Maybe of wrong choices
Maybe of carelessness
Maybe of not learning
The causes and effects
Of forgetting religion

This is God's warning
Learn the pitfalls from them
We can't ridicule their choices
Now they live with sorrow and regret

Every human tragedy
There is a lesson to learn and relearn
We tend to forget after a time
And start doing the ways before

International AIDS Day
A timely remembrance of those gone away
A day to acknowledge AIDS in our lives
When we forget to protect ourselves
Forgetting the values we learn

I had seen the inflictions
On two of my former employees
They didn't listen to advice
Finally AIDS got them
They didnt think of tomorrow
They only thought of today

One I visited because he was living nearby
The other had to be hospitalized back in Klang Valley
He managed to recover came to say goodbye to me
The next few days he was gone in his home

I still hold the belief
It is our own doing
Living it without the rules
It is the warning
People must learn
