Our Little Story

Opening my eyes to this unknown world
The first thing I saw was you
Engulfing me in your nest of warmth
Away from afflictions, you guided me through.

Whenever the ambience felt morbid
You were there to hold me tight
Appeasing my anxious and jittery nerves
You spent your day and night.

Understood me like a friend, fought like a sibling
Played multiple roles everyday
Gave me your motherly rebukes
But loved me ever the same.
                     
You were the only light of hope
In the never ending darkness of fear
Stood beside me when the world turned its back
Artistically concealing your every pain and tear.

Step by step we crossed the bridge of hurdles
And never for once did you complain
Witnessed me at my best, tolerated me at my worst
Stayed alongside through sorrow and disdain.

You say I’m the reason of your pride
I feel you’re the one who helps me succeed
My soul is nothing but your shadow
I’m incomplete without your care and lead.

Mere words cannot describe this unique bond
Our story still has a long way to go
May God forever keep the love binded
And bless me someday to be like you.
