‘How can you possibly <br />Do this to me…? ’ <br />Demanded the unknown woman <br />Last night as sleep began to pull me <br />Into its checkered course <br />I looked about peering into the darkness <br />If I were dreaming and wondered <br />Whose voice it was… <br />‘Don’t you recognize me? <br />I’m your unknown woman… <br />How cruel of you to put me to sleep! ’ <br />I heard her gathering my wits <br />‘Tell me, how can I be dead? <br />I’m strongly rooted on this earth <br />And I’m prepared to strive and struggle <br />For any number of eons <br />And mind you, I’ll breathe my last <br />Only upon seeing man amd woman <br />Treating each other as humans <br />It’s then will I in blissful contentment <br />Leave this earth… and the day isn’t far off! ' <br /> <br />How do I atone this ignorance of mine? <br /> <br />09may2010 <br />03.40hrs<br /><br />indira babbellapati<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/from-the-biography-of-an-unknown-woman-xvi/
