Crippleness...


When you called me 
Your life
I felt most lively
On this earth


When you said
I was only yours
I felt my little entity
To be most precious

But, then something
Went unrelenting

The day you called me 
Nothing in your life
I lost my existence
And was standing nowhere


Felt almost breathless
And was deprived of air
I incurred so many fears
And cried all night 


I secluded myself 
And was feeling alone
That day this talkative 
Become the most tacit one

You know, that day onwards
What happened ?
I was left only as a
Jest for situations
And my Fate laughs on
My crippleness.

    And my Fate laughs on
    My crippleness.

  9. I've had this happen to me when I was young...you described that feeling of breathlessness so well...like someone punched you in the stomach. You portray the shock and sadness so well.

  11. That is a heart touching rendition. You certainly are talented as far as poetry is concerned :)

    However, I would want to point something out. I have had quite a few relations myself and having been into all that, I know something about being in love. Infact, I will tell you what it is NOT. It is not losing yourself for your counterpart but finding your true potential and realising it. You are,and you will, remain and individual. There is nothing as joint existence. Think over it :)
