Pair me not
The whirring sound of the AC
Artificial breeze in my hair
Sleep, a glimpse of eternity
Twirling, my mind it does ensnare
♦
In my dreams tomorrow I see
Hopes with many a friend I share
The soothing of maternity
Rids of all evils and despair
♦
The dreams I dream are meant to be
Yet my soul will never walk there
Arms reach out for felicity
Mind abhorring the mere word pair
♦
All words pile up but break in me
Desolate my arms remain bare
Strong she breaks away in fury
My sister, my twin, untamed mare
♦
Pair me not, she screams so shrilly
Choose me not a life so unfair
Seek not promises so empty
All we need is each other’s care
