Reflections!


A Letter to my Dearest,

I know you for more than 40 years long .
I was astonished by the way you faced your struggles in life strong
I could recollect of how you tackled the facts with your courage
Moving about helplessly but still made plans to manage

No man is sacrificed of me on his journey
For all, was sent here to pay back for their destiny
Now you are  weak, I know that I made you so
I was playing my part in your life's book recto-verso

Slowly I started admiring you and I wished to stay with you forever
But since I am in love with you I wanted you to stay happy ever
So I have taken an important decision in my life.
And that is,I am moving out relieving you of your life's strife.

Although in life there is no fast forward or rewind
I was tempted to leave my reflections behind
Not to make you remember your struggles on your way
But for you to know that I once existed on your pathway

Yours,
Sorrows in life

  3. This seems a very sad poem to me, if I am interpretting it correctly. I think about the last stanza, about existing on someone's pathway and then moving on.....well, I don't know the circumstances, but it is a very good, sad, and heartfelt poem to me.

  4. @all Thanks for commenting
    @Mary..yes,its a sad a poem.But the good thing is that the sorrow leaves at last seeing how courages he/she is facing life.
    The moral being,all humans are not spared of sorrows but instead of being depressed,let them face them with courage for "COURAGE is the ONLY HOPE".

  13. Mind- blowing My Dear Uma.. :D
    Your WP is a protected one??
    This one made me think and think- could this be also a helpless lover- someone who couldn't work anything out for the other one- and now leaving quietly?
    Helpppp.. why do I have to always try to look beyond.. Even if it is only sorrows trying to part, it's sad- really losing!!

    Very well written Uma.. xoxox

  16. I really like how you put it in the form of a letter and at first I wondered who she was...then who he was and then at the end...wow...Good job.

  17. I wonder, Uma, if "Courage is the Only Hope"
    as you said above. When a woman leaves a man,
    the man is usually not feeling very hopeful.
    But in this case, you encouraged him to go on
    and live out his own life. Thus, you were kind
    enough to try and make him feel hopeful about
    the future. Doubts can get the best of us, so
    I see confidence as being the vehicle which
    brings hope within our reach. Hope is hope
    in essence, and no one can take it away from
    you...unless you let them. I wish that man luck.
    I doubt he will ever forget you.

    Nice write up, Uma! Very personal, too.
    Peace, Uncle Tree

    @me2watson
    I think you did not read the last line friend.Its the 'sorrows in life' writing a letter to him/her.Its the reflection of the deep sorrows telling him goodbye.

  22. "Not to make you remember your struggles on your way
    But for you to know that I once existed on your pathway"

  24. beautifully written.Coated in sadness though. Makes me ponder if leaving was his wish too and not just a thought in the writers heart? We all think too much,,,,
    Love the way you express what you feel!
    Will come back,,promise.
