A Different Raksha Bandhan

From teasing me with different names,

From always calling me adopted,

From fighting with me for having your chocolate,

From standing up by my side against my family, just to let them fulfill my dreams,

To fighting for me with those who teased me and other girls on roads,

To that day when you convinced me and the family and left us for the sake of the country,

To the bestest brother, you have been ever,

To the bestest, dedicating and hardworking soldier ever,

Happy Raksha Bandhan and Independence day,

It's your day when I saw you after years lying inside a coffin and resting in peace. Your body, being covered with our national flag.

This Raksha Bandhan is very different from others, where I'm craving for you to give me your hand and I'll tie you the Rakhi, but instead, I'm crying like hell, and praying to God to give my brother back...

Rest in peace brother...
