Exposed
Thank God it was the middle of a dream
When I saw that which may not seem
Peek into the private part of the making
The rugged and the sweetness in their shaking
Many a time I thought the knob would turn
And my kid would see what she had learnt
A face to face truth, no remedy to the eyes
Father and mother turn lovers with no disguise
But wake I did and found a house quiet
And my daughter far away in her own private riot
Fighting demons that belong to anothe dimension
One of them is a relationship and its tension
Never do the eyes of kids see what's in plain sight
Although they know that somehow they're right
Father and mother are normal people but not so normal
Where's the love when the attire is so formal?
The secret of life passed from generation to generation
And it, till now, despite signs, remains a secret
From the very ones who guard it the most
And have a feeling they have to find it to have it lost
Bumping me like an alarm bell in my head
I bumped to find that my daughter was not there instead
Between worlds, I did my best to remove the stain
To remind my daughter there's a future to gain
It was a dream as if I am being warned
To not let my guard down after having sworn
To protect those I love, by hovering over one
And sheltering the other from siding the sun
