WIFE...

With heavy heart and wet eyes,

I was making myself ready for an anonymous paradise.

Who reside there, what are they made off,

I had no clue.

So I put on an unused grin 

from the box of your memories.

I am sold,

I am a wife.

I got a man beside me, 

So now I have got a life.

I heard my husband completely,

and soaked all his words gently,

But his words were harsh,

which teared my soul apart.

He touched me were you touched,

I was numb, I felt nothing. 

Bare in front of him I laid, 

with my eyes closed,

on the floor dismayed.

I bleeded the colorless blood,

like soundless cries of slut.

He never noticed my bleeding wounds,

never soothed my aching soul,

never touched me like you touched,

but prayers for him I always enchanted.

Oh!! But this was not the end,

as God had more to send,

I saw you in the church. 

Dressed in manly black,

eyes glittering like diamond,

and smile without a slack.

You walked towards me,

with your head held high.

Butterflies in my belly,

I started to feel shy.

Aghast, you held my hand,

I turned blue and couldn't stand.

"You forgot me" you whispered,

tears swirled down my cheek,

blinking and dabbing my eyes,

I said " Thank you for returning"

"Leave him... come with me" you said.

"Leave me, let me die" saying this,

I started to cry.

You held me in your arms,

wiped my tears and got alarmed. 

"You are cold and weak,

depressed and tweaked.

Come with me,

I am here to buy you back.

Now I am rich,

Hold me tight and I will take you to my paradise"

Your words were pure,

and yes you loved me sure.

But,

Now I am leaving,

tell my husband, to whom I was sold, that-

I will still hear him completely,

soaking his every word gently.

Wife
