Breath

Don’t leave
Stay with me
Temper will catch
You were with me from my birth…
Everyone gave up me
Even father and mother
Don’t know, whose am I?
But….
I know
As an illegitimate child
All are renege me…
I feel, everything
But to whom I say?
No one for me
Even my blood siblings
But…
Someone was with me ever
Who still didn’t leave me
But…
He also tries to leave
No one nearby me
Except me
Nothing to do…
Nothing to say…
because,
it’s my
breath …

Love

Love is understanding
Love doesn’t judge or condemn
Love listens and understand
Love cares and sympathizes
Love accepts and forgives
Love knows, no barriers
It may make a flexible heart…
