I treasure a home
in your familiar warm hug,
Like a kid who races to a familiar face in a crowded
quarter.
Your aroma makes me
feel secured.
Like a little baby can smell his mommy & sleeps in peace.
I trust my hand into
yours,
Like a baby when learning to walk.
I look up-to you when
I fall,
Like a baby waiting
for a familiar figure to pick him up.
I find comfort in your soft voice.
Like a kid forgets all his anger, discomfort, pain when talked to, with love.
I tell you my
darkest secrets,
Like a kid who comes
home quiet after a fight but ends up telling everything to their mom.
A small gesture by
you makes me so happy,
Like a kid who
cannot control his happiness over a lollipop.
I feel relieved
shedding my tears in front of you,
Like a kid, who
cries everything out & are back to normal the very next moment.
My eyes starts to
twinkle on seeing you around,
Like a baby, when
given his favorite precious to spend time with.
I look up-to you
for motivation, cheering me up and support,
Like a kid waiting
for their parents to wave and cheer them up at their sports day.
I wait for you, endlessly-
Like a kid waits for his birthday & for Santa, every year.
The child in me is still alive,
& the child in you is still alive too,
Lets not hold it back,
Let us, let it thrive!
