tonight its painful
the agony complicates
with every passing breath
i am exhausted
like an albatross
returning from a long journey
yet all i did was to show
how much i love them
my dear ones
in sick states
all i can do is care
and amid all the cry
and shivering
i have to stay sane
and beware
of the slightest hurt
that i might cause
or the littlest indifference
that might affect
their soft hearts 
tonight its painful
and the agony just complicates
with every passing breath  
i am alive yet scared
for them
i am half without
their smiles
i am incomplete
without their love
and their well-being
to save me from the world…
