Word from friend <br /> <br />I heard sobbing voice from friend <br />She was almost crying from far end <br />“He has ditched me for nothing” <br />I thought somewhere gone wrong for something <br /> <br />She is caring and nice woman <br />So many times cheated by selfish men <br />But she was meant for some ideals <br />So there was difficulty in fining real <br /> <br />She had given up the chase <br />Life for her had become just race <br />To struggle always for gaining ground <br />But alas! It was elluding and not found <br /> <br />She would confide in me and explain <br />Her tears may fall as of that rain <br />Every time she may be in agony and in pain <br />As it happens with all and may also remain <br /> <br />“What should I do if someone refuses? <br />Imposes conditions and confuses” <br />I stood motionless and thought for a while <br />I could not convince her for it meanwhile <br /> <br />At certain age you not only need partner <br />But guardian for your kids as gardener <br />Some aspects can just be neglected <br />As relation at later stage is always respected <br /> <br />She admitted she was in love <br />They had met and happily drove <br />But there was reluctance on his part <br />She was confused as to stop or start <br /> <br />It was sensitive issue and needed consideration <br />As it required careful thinking of solid relation <br />No one knew what real turn will be out <br />So she was not at confident about <br /> <br />She was loosing her nerve <br />As she feared it won’t serve <br />Her purpose of remaining so noble <br />As he was not in position to spell out and able <br /> <br />I did explain about dangers involved <br />It might aggravate rather than problem solved <br />It may be better she her self weighted the situation <br />And discontinue if that was harmful for continuation <br /> <br />I prayed for her success and went for sleep <br />I was so much moved by her plight that I tried to weep <br />Head became so much heavy with struggling thoughts <br />No such situation was ever faced or thought<br /><br />hasmukh amathalal<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/word-from-friend/
