Saju Abraham - Battered Love

2014-06-17 2 Dailymotion

I held your bloodied face in my hands, <br />Placed it in my bosom, <br />First time I found peace with you. <br /> <br />You strangled our love long ago, <br />Battered my heart every time, <br />Every time you fell on your knees, <br />And I saved our tottering love. <br />You sold my love for a meager sum, <br />Even then my heart lingered round you. <br /> <br />But this time you went too far, <br />I looked for a semblance of my dream, <br />And my hands turned up empty, <br />I stood up in the pool of blood, <br />And stared at your blank eyes. <br />Did I see the hope I'd tended? <br /> <br />I lifted your bloodied face in my hands, <br />Placed it my bosom. <br />This time your breathe pierced thru' my bosom.<br /><br />Saju Abraham<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/battered-love/
