Our love cascades down from the heavens
strong and resilient.
Just like the two of us.
Rushing out of our hearts like a wild fire.
Forging a pathway, the future
that is only for us.
Unique, separate from the ordinary
a direction only we can travel together
I’m asking you to take my hand.
I got a feeling like everything is possible
I don’t want you to follow me.
I want to walk hand in hand
as one entity, as one team.
Because together anything can be done
I want to learn with you.
I want to explore with you.
I want to learn with you.
I want to grow with you.
More than anything
I can ensure you darling
that nothing can stop us.
That everything will be okay
Love is strong,
but my feelings are stronger

Her name was Molly
She was the eldest in a family of 6 ,
Her dad was an alcoholic and gambler
Her mom sold milk to make a living
She had 2 brothers who were too lazy to work or study
So, all the weight and expectations fell upon her
But she never complained, kept working diligently
She was a silent worker who never asked  for sympathy
She was a role model to her youngest sister
She was quite smart and intelligent,
Beautiful and brave,
She was unabashed and was down to earth
She completed her degree in nursing
Despite financial struggles, lack of support and misogyny
And became a successful nurse
She served people for 28 years without any protest
She taught me to be myself,and the virtue of patience
I consider myself blessed to be her son
I look up to her to this day...
She has sacrificed so much in her life
All she asked ever in return was to break stereotypes
And do things which no one will expect from you
Thank you ,mom for everything..
