Every Heart

Sarala tells about the need for love and care for every person. A social awareness poem, exclusively for Different Truths.

Every heart needs to be consoled.
Sometime or other 

Every heart needs to be loved 
By someone compassionate 

Every heart craves some special 
Attention and care 

Every heart cries at times 
When in pain and it’s your duty to wipe 
Their tears off, which is
Just being human

Every couple craves a child 
But all are not lucky in this 

They adopt a tiny baby and love
Her or him from the innermost 
The core of their heart and play the role 
Of their mother and bring them up
With unconditional love

Whether young or old 
Everyone needs a company 
to unburden their sorrows and pains 

If you are a human 
You will abide by these words 
And be happy throughout without any guilt
