playing in the lap of dreams
Adorned by silver beams
Eyes deserve the nursury rhyme
As if they stole Italian wine .
Seeing the picture in album
When will my papa come
Putting knife on sweet cake
Promises papa always break .
Oil of pain in the lamps of eyes
Papa will come , no more cries
Mumma , sing a saucy song
Why silence , what's wrong ?
She enjoys her innocence
In the dark veil of ignorance.

Priya, this one aches softly…the child’s voice so pure it hurts. The innocence makes the heartbreak sharper. You’ve painted absence with tenderness. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
