    SERENDIPITY



    You saw the beauty of my eyes but missed the pain deep inside,
    Admired the curls around my face but missed the grief I wanted to hide.

    You held my hand when you felt ,never looked at the worry lines
    Watched the attires I was wearing marveled at the very silk fines

    You heard me sing when you wanted to, but did you really listen?
    To the quivering that I felt or the tears in my eyes that glisten

    I was always beside you ,your loyal chaperone
    While you moved away to others I still remained you own

    I quietly erased the smell of another woman from your shirt
    But had inhaled it enough and so was now deeply hurt

    You said you were the master and I was yours to stay
    You came when you wished to or else pushed me away

    How many times I cried hoping you would find
    This lady of yours was yours in both the body and mind

    But you didn’t want to see me beyond your own need
    A lady for your wishes a lady who fulfils her deed

    How many times I cried and grew older than my mind
    How very different every thing was, had I been so blind.?

    You gave me love and then you crushed the very rose you had plucked
    So sure you were now that this would be , since as a lady I was mucked

    I told you time and again to come around as what you did was very wrong
    But you hated me to tell you this and you hated that I ever be strong

    Now you shall be gone at last for me but would I ever cry
    No not at all after all these years my eyes have really gone dry

    So now my dear I shall bid good bye , with all that’s left of gaiety
    My hardships were here till now, dear life, now here I come to serendipity

    Regards,

    Devika

    Dear Devika,:wow:wow:wow

    As I read ,at first I was feeling sad for the betrayed
    member of our tribe and bemoaning the fate of all such eves
    who walk those paths as part of their destiny.But then ,I said "Hip hip hurray!!"......she broke the spell and realised that there is more to LIFE and she can choose not to be trampled upon and crushed!
    You have portrayed the metamophorsis of a broken hearted eve beautifully.
    Here's to more and more eloquent pieces from you.
    Warm regards
    PAULINABow
