The old broken window of my house



However,time has passed restlessly
i still remember the moments of rejoice
life has been akin to unpredictable sea
sometimes as calm as silence of soul
sometimes as harsh as a blowing wind
how beautiful was life with loved ones
this is what reminds me the unique
old broken window of my house
lashing rains hot sun and the snow
all seasons have passed patiently
my restless body yearns for a rest
but the soul had lost the touch of care
my mother the real touch of my soul
has gone far across the limitless sky
the old broken window of my house
reminds me of her waiting eyes
how timelessly she used to wait for me
 the surety was there of my coming
but her absence is killing me day in and out
i ought to kneel and beg for her
my mom my life i yearn for you
