I knew this girl who loved to dream
Which got buried amidst world's scream...
I knew this girl who loved to laugh..
So called society made her rough...
I knew this girl who cherished each moment..
She dealt a past only to lament...
I knew this girl who enjoyed nature's beauty..
Family burdened her hell lots of duty...
I knew this girl who loved making friends..
She got a future with only dead ends...
I knew this girl who loved to live..
But today when I see.. I can not believe...
I am left puzzled with queries all over..
Is this the same girl is what I wonder!!
Her dreams are murdered.. laughter suppressed..
Moments were taken.. And friends distanced...
Made lonely..to fear..to fight..to breath..
For the real her was lost somewhere beneath..
Still she is alive with a belief
To rise and shine like a twinged leaf..
I know this girl with hope in her heart
To conquer.. HERSELF again.. no matter what....

Simple words but deep deep impact. This is what happens when the anchor of a big big ship finally meets the sea bed.
ReplyDeleteWhat I mean is, your ship - Writing, the ship "Which got buried amidst world's scream" finally emerged from the shallow burial and has now got a anchor to halt.
The first poem I read of your, the first poem which makes me ponder the miseries of being a girl, the first poem on which I comment after being touched through heart, the first poem with which I conclude that, "We never know our strength, until being strong is the only option left."
Looking for more goood reads. :)
