LOVE BEYOND LIFE

There were so many things
I wanted to tell you,
But you went away before
I could gather my courage.

Years rolled by
But you never answered my letters.
I thought you had
Forgotten me.

The rains brought you back
To my doorsteps.
You were a homeless tramp,
A lost man in the battle of life.

Little did I know
What you were upto.
I smiled at my luck
My dream was turning real.

But you betrayed me again.
You repaid me too well.
Slit my throat when I was sleeping,
Dreaming of you and me together.

Now I write in my own blood
The saga of cruel pain you gave me.
Avenge I shall,
But how can I hurt my own love ?

Nicely written poem.

They say in samskrita Kshamaya dharitri Naari (Forgiveness is the essence of a lady). But many seemed to have pushed her over the edge that forgiveness becomes impossible.

Tume satare gotia kabhi :) ?

Mua jane, bhuatkichi aame kahu ba lekhu kintu aame saada bele gotia prasana ra uttar paeinki jeevan sara kujibuli thau. There is no life beyond your imaginations and no love beyond your life. Many times it sounds me as if a fake reality or maybe a bitter truth.

Pinku said…
that was very nice...

unlike Suresh would like to quote that the female of every species is deadlier than the male. and nothing is as dangerous as a woman spurned...

so avenge you must...if only to stay true to your gender...

MRS DESPATCHER(PART II)

CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS POST… Eighteen months later…. I was beginning to like my work. It was a challenge sometimes. I had learnt to go beyond boundaries. The dreams which had eluded me once, were dawning as reality now. I had my taste of success and as they say nothing succeeds like success. I had developed a knack for solving my own problems. One day , I chanced by a couple who were seated in a corner of the quaint little coffee shop. I couldn’t believe my eyes…. Divya and Sandip…here of all places. I couldn’t help but confront them. Divya was warmer than ever before and Sandip… I knew he was feeling a bit coy..its so typical of him. But I was more than surprised when he asked me to join them. Though I didn’t refuse, they found me going after five minutes. I invited them for lunch on Sunday. It was a fine Sunday morning and my guests were sharp on time. Divya offered me help in the kitchen and I chose not to refuse. My books kept Sandip busy. She could read my mind and went on with h

A s I was walking , C hoosing the hues of life, R ainclouds made an appearance O n the sunny sky above. S cuttling through untrodden paths, T he narrow bylanes,not a soul around, I was indeed lost - Drops of rain C hased me - but Ahoy! a way was found.

PRE-ANNIVERSARY INSANITY

MY LIFE AND TIMES will be a year old on 26th of this month. Blogging has been my greatest pleasure since then. I would like to thank my countless (?) readers who have added to my experience on bloggerville. A huge thank you to all of you ! Why I blog ? #It’s a good pastime (lol...I guess it’s a lot more) #I get to read some real good posts (and take cues) #I get to read some crap posts too( no offence meant-actually they enhance my positive self esteem :D) #My friends and relatives see me in a new light here ( After all, now they know that I’v some good qualities too :D ) #I made some good blogger friends with whom I can have fun. I’m sure many of my loyal readers are still reading. For them, there will be a treat on the D-day. ( Don’t raise your expectations sky high-its just a post - no awards/interviews/guest posts ). But I’ll give my best to fill your time with a good read. I was turning the pages of my personal diary today and I found this. This is for you, my dearest blog (my
