The yearning...

Sitting in this wonderland,my mind wanders through,
Missing the ones with whom we grew,
Dad's care behind his snare,
Mom's love like the ray of hope in despair!

Every meal, every fond moment together,
The tough times, we stuck in every weather,
The unsaid understanding, the kind of support you cannot measure,
Creating moments of a lifetime to treasure!

The sibling chaos,the friends we left behind,
Far in sight but never out of the mind,
Making new connections on the way,
The heart still yearns those away!

Fate has a funny way of turning out,
For stillness, we choose distance from the ones we cannot exist without,
But the soul knows it's connections a horizon away,
Firm in its roots, always here to stay!

The yearning takes a sprawl across the space,
To bring us together again at one  place,
Realising it is all in a dream,
The yearning gives out a silent scream!
