In the happy mothers lap
Lies are prize of pain
All the more the deary smiles
His mother is all to gain

Hungry days and sleepless nights
she pampered him warm in bed
she kissed him soft and hugged him tight
and performed all he said

up he grew a young boy
his mother in pride would smile lullaby
like the morning sun he shone
like an evening Nile

Then he married an young girl
Pretty as his mom once was
all changed in moments time
his love was all for In-Laws.

Alone and old his mother worked
struggling all the way
like she did for her son once
now its just the other way

Tired feverish helpless down
gasping in deep breath
No one to serve her even water
or to love her instead

Its blood in birth and blood in life
its blood in death as well
what s then left in this bloody life
whats then left in Hell!

Rupsha always had the final say. No matter what Sohail wrote, she had to edit. Just had to. Sohail was a brilliant author, he could paint with words. He could tickle, provoke,  incite and excite with his pen but he was too casual with construction and punctuation.. Rupsha knew that after was done with it,  it was a perfect piece. She knew Sohail wrote for her,  he always had, for the last 6 years she was all he wrote for... Sometimes explicitly, sometimes subtly but the objective was always a nod of approval from her. Sohail loved that look,  curly hair,  kohl laden eyes and that smile which meant the world to him.... Sohail wrote something today... Rupsha wasn't there to edit anymore... Rupsha saw it on Facebook.... She went through it... It had so many errors... Yet it struck the heart, just as it always did.... But she knew she couldn't correct him anymore,  the mistakes were too personal... She had lost the right... Sohail still wrote... Now for...
