Estranged - Rictameters
Background
The two Rictameters are about feelings revolving around separation from people who you least expected to be separated from.
The first one is about how someone, who you considered to be your close friend and confidant, betrayed you in the course of life, their love for you being need-based.
The second Rictameter is about a family member who is supposed to be close to you, but ah! you both know that the differences are so huge that despite all the superficial caring, there lies a coldness underneath that makes you strangers to one another.
The Rictameters
Friendship
Is one that sunk
Deep in the selfish needs
Struck hard when I found you lying
Dismay wound me throwing me in a shell
Bitter to the core I stood still
The world ended for me
When ended your
Friendship
**********************************
Kinship
Is what we share
Strong bonds of blood and care
Forever will be gratified
By the fake feeling of nearness and love
For being close and being far
Are two enemy sides
Of your and my
Kinship
