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...

ILLUSIONS OF REALITY...

The more you point out my mistakes, The more you are drawn towards me. The more you try to hurt me, The more you bleed in your heart. The more you run away from me, The more my memories haunt you. The more you want to forget me, The more you are reminded of my presence. The more you want to chase me away, The closer I come to you. The more you hate me, The more you end up loving me. The more you call me an “illusion” The more I dawn as the reality of your life….

A C R O S T I C

A s I was walking , C hoosing the hues of life, R ainclouds made an appearance O n the sunny sky above.

CONFESSION OF A WOMAN...

When I'm born,I'm jeered at.When I'm a child,I'm made to believe that my reason for existence is somebody else.While I'm growing up,I'm discouraged to question.My brain and heart are numbed.I cannot die too,since it will bring infamity to my family.People would say,"At this age,what could have forced her to terminate herself ? She failed to materialize her fantasy.Such bad morals." I fast for the well-being of my father and brothers.When I outgrow my frocks,I'm let off to another household.There, I work for others, without pay.I have children but they treat me like a door-mat.Here too,I fast for my husband's and childrens' long,peaceful life.When the man of the house,who happens to be my "husband" dies,I shed a part of my soul.I have no right to live then,I just breathe and sit in a corner.Rest of my life is spent in praying-for death.They say, "Woman needs a man.In childhood,its father.In youth,its husband and in old age,i...
