Looking out


Three people cannot stay together
One spouse is bi-polar
Untreated, on the loose
With words can never choose
What is wrong or right
Throws tantrums, fights
With the other two members
Threatened for life, take sides.

The other a megalomaniac
Always doing all the work
From running errands
Has piles of bills to pay
For every matter, has a say
Angered here, worried there
For nuts, cannot stand the bi-polar
Who once upon a time, was the lover
Since long it’s over.

The third person is the child
Confused and wild
Encourages the working parent
To date with new friends
Has fun with its own;
Family finds a tragic end
All the three members
Ping or sometimes phone
But with each other,
They could never stay together!

Yet the three
Flying independent and free
In their own ways willy-nilly
From strangers around
Wanting their feet to be
On the ground
Are searching every moment
Getting cheated, being silly
Looking out, for a family.

They will never look inside
For they know they’re quite right
With treasures of affection in them
The three, a mystery, playing the same game
Of blaming and calling names;
But one thing is dead and clear
They will never explore love together
For they cannot stay with each other.
