FAMILY PORTRAIT

 


we bonded not by blood 

not by looks or touch 

but by that which is rare 

darkness 


an attachment rare to see 

a connectivity beyond comprehension 

we are legion 

inseparable, a straight course 


each one of us caring a curse 

labeled distinctively below our purrs 

our stares are scary because of our eyes 

we derive passion in sorrow 


dare not to feature in this picture 

it’s a point of no return for you 

for this fraternity is unquestionably 

your happiness is a turn off
