Love In the Void
As you grow older one comes across
Different battles different hardships
Dealing with the Satan and the sins
We got to learn to handle it
Frustrating and killing it is
We got to learn to handle it
The guilt is there to remind
No solace we find
There was a guilt of being
in the family but not wholly belonging
Call of ambitions was strong
I chased my dreams he his
Love was neither given nor received
As we lived under one roof
In separate ways
Realizing the futility of all
I gave in
As the nucleus
In the atom is a must ,and must be stable
I started giving attention to him
Took care to cook his choice
Kept the house clean and
Remained cheerful and loving
Slowly the bond
Grew stronger and love
Has made an entry, it has entered
The void we had created.
