On a pensive and lonely night,
I walked by the sea in little light,
Listening to the sounds of a roaring wave,
which made the sea sound very grave.
Then there I saw someone sitting nearby,
On walking upto her, I saw her cry,
Her eyes were stormy, swollen and red,
Tears were moving but she was still as dead.
I shook her hard and held her tight,
Her eyes blinked and sparkled bright.
I sat beside her in order to try,
To comfort her and make her tears dry,
I gently wiped a hot flowing tear,
And decided to undo her distress, her fear,
I asked her what had caused her pain,
On hearing my question she started to cry again,
Weeping uncontrollably, sobbing like a child,
Making my fancies run like wild,
I tried to see through her sadness, her pain,
I tried to understand the reason but all in vain
So after a while she finally spoke,
Telling me the story how her heart broke.
She told me, "I had a dear friend,
without whom I feel my life has ended.
We were the world to one another,
one was body then soul was other.
But a friendship which was so eternal and true,
Had disappeared in the mud like a drop of dew.
My heart pains and my eyes cry,
Crippled with agony, failing to understand, OH !! WHY ??"
I could feel her pain, her sorrowful sigh,
And began to wonder, oh why, shouldn't I
Become her friend and relieve her pain,
And see to it that she is never lonely again?
Thus I sat silently and heard all she said,
Until her agonising past fell dead.
By this time I felt she had started to trust me,
And in her presence I too felt entirely free.
We became friends "The ever best",
Friends far above from all the rest made
Then one day a storm blew out the flame,
And I realised I had lost the game,
For my dear friend was hatred in disguise,
who had made me her plaything, in her game of vice.
To her my friendship was a tool to play,
And she had been eagerly waiting for this day.
When she could make a fool of my love,
Now she had laughed at me and left,
But I had still not recovered from that theft
And now as I sit by the sea,
I can see her walking upto me,
Like a stranger to ask me why,
What is it that has made me cry,
And then I hear myself saying those words,
which once she had said, "I had a dear friend,
without whom I feel my life has ended.
We were the world to one another,
one was body then soul was other.
But a friendship which was so eternal and true,
Had disappeared in the mud like a drop of dew.
My heart pains and my eyes cry,
Crippled with agony, failing to understand, OH !! WHY ??"
What had I done to earn this pain,
ceaseless tears fall like monsoon rain,
Breaking all barriers flooding my heart,
Making it impossible to forget that part.
So much I have lost to hatred in disguise,
That no good thing in life makes me feel nice.
So my friend 'HATRED' I have a request for thee,
Please don't do this to anyone what you have done to me. |
