Away From Home
Away From Home
It gives you freedom, you are at your own
It is about your life, decisions of your own
You want to be like a free bird, wander free in the limitless sky
No one questions you, about your whereby
It seems you have the license to roam
When you are 'Away from home'
You have ambitions, and desire to succeed
Tireless your efforts are and victory becomes your weed
All these allures you for a short time
But there is something missing even when you are at your prime
Happiness which is missing
When you are 'Away from home'
You eat pizzas, burgers, and the fast food
This is now when you miss your mother and her food
There are friends with whom you can cheer, but there is no father, Whose scolding you can hear
Your every celebration misses a charm
When you are 'Away from home'
Skype, mail, phone calls all are in vain
Hug of your sister is the moment of refrain
You miss the cricket match at roof with young brother
Someone to whom you can lose and you will least bother
You miss those cuddles, fights, and kisses
When you are 'Away from home'
You want to be near to your mother and sleep in her lap,
But you just look at her photograph as she is at 1000 miles gap
Festivals are dim and the silence creeps in
And you have to be strong as being weak is a sin
You are the pillar of strength and hence, you need to work hard
You have everything but the happiness is missing
When you are 'Away from home'
