You and me



You were always bright
Stood first in the class ,
Had al the prizes in the drawing room
Father and mom was so proud of you
I was  too….

I was never as bright as you
Scolded by the teacher at school
Could not study well …
Mom and father was angry and frustrated
You tried to help me out but you couldn't …
I remained the same ..

Today you are a famous doctor
Staying far outside the country ..
 parents are ill since long  brother ,
But you did not return ever ..
I am beside them now  …
