You and I

You and I We were two seeds Just like each other Things that made us different came later We were germinated in the distance of some time You got nourished and cherished by the world I got abandoned and neglected Because they always had hope in you My existence was perhaps a coincidence You grew in the conditions I could only dream of But somehow I managed to grow in tough conditions You got watered and sunned by nature I was left in darkness Yearning for light and water I have endured all these sufferings for decades You have not even seen a few hard days I am thin, fragile, dried and weak You are healthy, robust, nourished and strong But all these years I never expected you to endure my suffering Then why? Why? Why? Why do you expect me to be like you? Meer Ishan Hussain
