I see a lot of me in you -
In the way you come up, to gasp for breath
Before life drags you down, to her deeper depths.
The way you gaze, at troubles coming your way
Take a moment to get war ready, and engage.
One moment you crumble, weeping like a child
Only to shake it off, to challenge and defy
You search for a shelter, to unload, to rest
Yet walk away from any inn, that'd take in a guest
The reluctance to give in, the grit to prove yourself
The impatience at failures, the selflessness, amidst hell
The longingness to find two arms to hold you in embrace
Keep you tucked in, as you'd pretend to break away
The unshed tears, the unsaid words
The unwavering hope, to persist despite falls
The half-hearted efforts to desist any emotions
Yet hoping against hope for someone to break walls, and walk in
Your kindness that puts smiles, on weary faces
Yet you lock yourself into a myriad of mazes!
I see a lot of me, in you
I look into mirrors and see you smile, amidst blues!
I wish I could hold you and whisper, my dear
The sun will shine soon, I know, as I've been there too!
In the way you come up, to gasp for breath
