I peeped out of the window,
And I saw a chunk of puddle,
Seeing that, thoughts in my mind began to muddle,
I Realised!
A deep corner of my heart ached,
And my soul cried..
Tears rolled down my cheeks,
And I felt the pain like never before
Some strings in my memory chain started to connect,
A sweet music was thus played,
Vague glimpses of a child I could see..
The inner me craved to know it's existence,
While somewhere from deep within,
I heard a voice say..
"I was there, I still exist in you...
But amidst this rude and hostile world, you lost me..."
"Though not forever", I sobbed.
That was the day when in the shadow I found you.
That was the day when my Childhood cried...
