Be it sadness, aloofness or mirth
It is difficult to cope and survive
When you do not tell vain from worth
I am happy to say that I can care
Without asking anything in return

And the only touch of sadness in it
That I cannot love as deeply, dearly
To be loving and caring every whit

Tired, drained and strained voice
Gaunt against the hot oppressive air
