Homeless
It’s not always about the person, who does not have the home,
Sometimes it’s about the person who has nowhere to go to.
It doesnot always mean that you have no money
It sometimes means that nobody wants you back
People do still care about you, they show they love you, guide you
But you know the home you left last is not the same now.
It has changed, it has more people/relatives in it
and you will no more get the attention you need
You struggle in this outside world every day in every way
Because you know you don’t want to go to this changed home
It’s no more about the TV or the food or the comfort that home provides
It’s about the call that says- Beta ghar aaja, bahut ho gaya.
And you run towards the home and reach station one hour before
Just because you love waiting for the train back home.
When nobody wants you to come back so you choose not to go back
You know you have become homeless.
