Longing

Times have changed so have the people

Be careful Mumma as you are brittle

You used to be innocent so I never left you alone

Now since I am away you have to be frown

Your last letter said this much

And made me cry

I still remember you said to me bye

Longing for your presence its been 2 years

You hugged me that and said not to fear

Told that you have another mother

And now you should protect her

I smiled through my tears

And kissed your head

You joyfully laughed and said I won't be dead

That day when you came wrapped in our flag

My heart skipped a beat

And felt my soul is being dragged

I still remember that face when you went there

I even remember that smile on your face when you were brought here

People respect you and call you the general

But for me, you always kid running after the ball

Longing for your presence now I have grown old

I m still unaware of all

But now there is no one to call...
