Loose Ends

Hunger after the stomach 
Is full. Thirst after it has 
Been quenched.

Where do clouds go when 
They can't pour down?

Where do the poems that
Couldn't make it to paper 
Find their abode?

These unsent love-letters
In the closet, 
Slowly turning sour.

Where did the unheard 
Songs go? and the 
Un-answered prayers?

And the innocent kids that
Die after the bombing?

Do they ever hail heavy 
On the gates of heaven?

Or they're sent to hell?
For not being capitalised
In a religious reckoning.
