Parents, you want to abandon me, <br />As you find your love in each other than me, <br />You shouting at nights wake me up from my dreams, <br />Covering my face of tears from the commotions of scream, <br />Throwing of the pillows and the bolsters to the ground, <br />Grinding of teeth and yelling out of breath, <br />Accusing each other in indelible language, <br />Forgetting me having plugged of my plumage, <br />Shivering under the blanket, praying to the Gods, <br />To teach you both to remember me always, <br />When you begin to fight and fail to converse, <br />Parents, speak as you both have nothing to confess.<br /><br />veeraiyah subbulakshmi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/never-to-be-abandoned/
