When all had gone

I saw him sitting alone, 

Drowned in thoughts & 

sinked into pain, 

He was still waiting &

staring in the lane, 

I tried to make him laugh

wished to be his better half, 

But he'd lost in those

heavenly memories, 

when his passed off mom

together shared glees, 

Just holded his hand

& a warm hug I gave, 

He bitterly cried as a kid 

then slept in my lap, 

I realized a fact that day

A man never grows up, 

He needs a woman's love

which soothes when he gives up!
