Relationship -a maze

A poem by Dr. Sangeeta Arora ( Principal,KIS)

In the maze of life, we chase and strive,

For bonds to cherish, to keep alive.

Friends, lovers, children, parents dear,

We seek their warmth, their presence near.

In this endless quest, we lose our way,

Neglect the soul, let it decay.

Forgetting the heart within our chest,

The relationship that knows us best.

Others bring joy, but also pain,

Their broken bridges we mend in vain.

Pained resilience becomes our creed,

Ignoring the soul's silent plead.

Happiness and sorrow, they intertwine,

Moments of light, but shadows combine.

Expectations hang like clouds above,

In this chase for a long-lasting love.

Yet, in the quiet, our soul awaits,

A patient friend through all life's gates.

If we turn inward, grant it space,

We'll find the peace, the inner grace.

So pause and breathe, hear your soul's call,

For it's the truest bond of all.

Amidst the noise and life's demands,

Hold your own heart within your hands.
