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
