Our Neem.

Our neem at the corner waved me to a halt........
"What has caked on your cheeks
Isn't it the last night's tears and their salt?"

"I can see she is not with you
Must be your fault!"

Our neem has all the rights
He has been a mute witness to all our fights

I am not surprised he thought it wise
To query the absence of my coveted prize

I don't know about you
But i feel a stranger in our own home

Feel like a swing halted in midair
Our home feels like an eerie lair

Will you come back if i asked you?

Hmmm

Come back so that the cuckoo doesn't go on cooing
I am sure, at me, she is booing

The road feels strange and looks really stretched
Come back even if its hope is far fetched

Come back please
As the neem tells me that i need a release
I actually heard him as i write this,

"Why don't you iron out the crease?
Both your lives need a new lease".............
