From her heart <br /> <br />Where’s he? <br />He slept by me last night <br />By morning he disappeared! <br />They say he slipped away <br />Stealthily in the silence of night <br /> <br />Body and brain <br />Became numb seeing <br />The bed emptied forever <br />Where’s he? <br />I pleaded <br />The stars, the sky <br />They all looked away! <br /> <br /> <br />Where lies my future? <br />In the tiny hands? <br />In the empty corridors of the palace? <br />In the vast mountain ranges? <br />Everywhere emptiness <br />Echoed and re-echoed! <br /> <br />Was he frightened of me <br />That he had to leave without notice? <br />Ah, it’s not his going away <br />It’s his going away without <br />Bidding me farewell <br />I who blindly followed him <br />To live a lifetime till death... <br /> <br />That hurts! <br />That hurts! <br /> <br />Did he think I was frail? <br /> <br />The hurts <br />That hurts! <br /> <br />Who is he? <br />Who am I? <br />In the medley of confusion <br />I lost the cognizance of myself <br />They say he went away… <br />Did he walk out on me? <br /> <br />He may have wrapped the world <br />In his warmth to redeem it <br />From suffering and sorrow <br />Who redeems mine? <br />How could he assume <br />I wouldn’t support his mission? <br /> <br />I could have walked <br />In his determined steps <br />In all willingness… <br /> <br />Ah, men!<br /><br />indira babbellapati<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/from-her-heart/
