Reborn


A knock,
A door opens.
A child 
whom you abandoned,
Due to unknown fears;
Greets you;
Within.

That child
Still waits in hope;
seeks your embrace,
with innocence in its eyes.
Worthy of your love.

Open the doors
And feel yourself..
That child in you!
That child is you!

Look into your self!
There lies a compassionate heart
Beneath the weeds of time.

    We come to know so many things in our big life except The newborn inside us
    Great thought
