It might be your mistake
It may be my mistake
Mistakes are mistakes
You mistook or I mistook
But mistakes happen.
Life is no soft petal caress
Life is no fluffy teddies
Life is no icing on the cake
Life is no sweet dream sleep
Life is no oozing beer
Many a things can’t change now
The pains have changed and modified
I have grown out and grown old
My needs were different on the go
My Acnes gone and aches begun
Little did u do, little by little
Little did I know, little by little
It dint work for us, it dint work that way
You on a steep and I on a slope
I cried out, just calling your name
You walked away just for a change
You needed him, just for a change
I needed you, just as unchanged
I warned you, just because you may change
Said you love him, the world did change
You sent me no regrets and I on cigarettes
Butts burned, my hearts in ashes
Your flimsy care then, didnt fail to surprise
I ate myself, gobbling emotions
I drank tears from memories’ cup.
Wrestling with pain, I went sleepless
Wreathing in agony, I wandered homeless
My eyes were dark, my body blue
I existed with emotional essence and
Meaningful joy vanished to heaven
Your life took a flight
You went higher and higher
Thoughts of me slower to slower
I still wonder, what was that thunder
That took my roots and all that bright
Some pages in your life and mine
Have shuffled leaves and meanings
Your’s different and mine so darker
Like a crumpled piece of paper
I went on with the gain of pain
I moved stiff and with all that butts
You never know what all, I did all stuff
But I moved and moved and moved
Far and far and far and far and far
Off the shore and into the core
For years and years we were apart
And thousands have changed
From you and me and all of us
Memories don’t haunt and flaunt now
And now nothing bothers, I only yarn
It cost my life for the mistake of yours
Those secret talks with the guy you liked
You told me you loved him twice or thrice
It doesn’t matter now , your words are cool
Your goodness I shall seek with no remorse
It took me years to come out of the hole
A dark life, built with no trust or hope
Will end on a note so low and wry
At least you reach peaks and stay on high
I will always pray and pull up a smile
My heart is dead and feels no cold
It’s warmth has given never never more
For feelings I don’t have so anymore
All that is left is words of peace
Nothing could I do than sit ashore
The heights that you have seen
And the people you have won
Teaches me something to cherish
All you have learnt not from me
But once a master I was to you
For pushing away, I have no vengeance
I am not angry, I don’t fume now
I won’t rage against nor wage war
I simply let go, you live yours and I mine
For love on you has gone for good
I am so clear, I was left betrayed
Thousand times I did say, don’t talk
You did speak to him and it tore me apart
Nothing can move me now, even your tears
I have cried a lot and won this guilt war.

With no complication intended by the author “DON’T TALK TO HIM I SAID” is simple poem expresses the feeling of a cheated lover. Even thougth personae is broken he shows the sign of resilience thorough out the poem. It reminds one of Nerurda’ s poem in which he says that he doesn’t care even if his lover comes with thousand men between her legs. That attitude of letting her go even after knowing that he cheated on him is so matured and it is lesson to every lover out there! Good one!

An another soothing, heart-warming go… from the author of ‘These full lips’. ‘Don’t talk to him, I said….’ a contradictory one from the former though, the writer here depicts rather a truly, needy one for unrequited hearts… Some words had really poured out well, the real essence of what it would be felt of having lost one’s beloved in the name of betrayal… For instance, ” I drank tears from memories’ cup . . . . ” “You told me you loved twice or thrice. . . .” shows the reader the true unfathomable pain of unrequited love… In the concluding stanza the poet comes out of his guilt with no more griefs and sufferings and taught universally through this poem to the readers, to overcome the betrayal of love if it’s not meant to be soulfully true….

This poem sings melancholically about the betrayal of the girl, whom the author loved the most in the world, dumbed him for the new one and the cancer of her memories is killing him slowly step by step. But he gradually overcomes everything and endures all the things she did. Even though he wishes her the best come in her life, his door of love is closed forever for her now if she wants to re-enter in his mind. As he had already warned her at the very beginning itself that she might realise the true love later. It is a splendid version of If you forget me, I will forget you in a rap.
Rapidly rocking!
