Who would know
The pain that she goes through
When she watches the sunrise
Followed by a reflection
That says "You have no place in his life
He is mine , you are a fool living in a fools paradise "
Her only accomplice her tears have known
The saline waters in her eyes is behind the glow
And is mistaken for sunrise
She tried to go but the fragments of her heart don't show
Their intent to accompany few more yards
With staggering feet of her' that she calls mine
Though her soul in deep pain
It argued with her heart
" If you are brave enough say good bye
life will treat you with a new welcome in life "( Paulo Coelho)
Her conversation with her heart failed
Its content with bits and pieces of happiness
That it can gather on its way
Towards the end of journey
As it knows she has come closer than before, to the pyre
That waits to engulf her in its arms
Make her lighter than air
Free her soul from the labyrinth of life
She looks at her scattered dreams
Who laugh mercilessly at her and make her feel
Like a twig blown with harsh wind
Smile when they watch her burn
With an infant desire
" Why couldn't she be the one and only woman in his life "

Deletesomebody once said to me that whenever you write a poem, never tell the readers what is it about. Let them judge and perceive your verses on their own! hope you got my point :)

Well versed broken window....
ReplyDeleteu have expressed it beautifully using imagery at times..there is a touch of poignancy & too emotional calling forth the conscience to seek true love..I loved the quoting of Paulo coelho my favourite writer & it suited well with the poem..Alka smiles:)God<3u
