Sacrifice for marriage



Sacrifice for marriage

Whether it is India, America or Africa
The occurrence is same and exact replica
The atrocity is committed and woman is made to suffer
Leaving behind deep scar of pain to bear

“Sir, I made lots of sacrifices for marriage”
Early days were romantic and within control to manage
Day was passing like river flow
I was unsure of it to set or go

I really sensed trouble for her
She was in tears and sufferer
I could visualize the complete scene
She was black diamond and nice to be seen

“If I speak of atrocity, it will cause break down”
It may be of high magnitude and unknown
To out side world and beyond imagination
I, with heavy heart, have preferred isolation

I felt pain in my heart
How long ladies have to suffer and depart?
Even if she remains loyal and trustworthy
Still she has to undergo pain and suffer with pity

I live with two kids that has emerged from marriage
I was not in good health and had suffered another miscarriage
He did nothing for our care and even inflicted injury
What could I do to him except feeling sorry?

I love my mom for her moral support
Else my ship had run aground before reaching port
I have gathered strength and decided to face
Any odd that might come across to chase

Let no lady should suffer on this count!
Even though they can withstand pressure of any amount
That is why they have addressed as mother world
Only gents must know the limit of remaining in their fold

When I sit on my personal computer, there is absolutely no thought in mind as to what is to be picked up as thought and written. These all things I leave it to the discretion of almighty to fill my mind with relevant ideas. So far I have been graced by Him and as result able to compose about 4000 poems.
