A Second Chance... Poem by Richa Dhodi

A Second Chance...

Rating: 4.9


Why his absence made me pale and mute?
Why his presence was so exclusive?
Why I m so dull and wan now?
Why still I wait for his Knock?
…..
I m trapped with all questions,
My mind jiggles and seeks for a response,
But, no where I strike with my request ‘for answers’,
He has forgot me,
That what I can close with,
But...

Time spent with him,
Remember me always,
I was packed with his stylish words,
Where he showcased me his false feeling,
And try to prove ‘my worth’,
He portrayed me to dream alike,
But…

His ‘likely’ dreams was a fake baggage,
In which I got sleighed with time,
His fondness was the warmth of my life,
And I never thought, it will hold distress,
But...

I was wrong,
A fond lover,
And slacked myself with his thoughts,
His abrupt departure from my life prove,
Love is a 'Thing',
Which prick and sting...
I got dwell with his Fakeness,
And it has heaved me only to discomfort...
But…

Now, no where I indicate myself,
Target of a loosen love stream,
So I won’t cry anymore,
And slog my life after him,
But..

Will hold a fresh start,
To see life with a second chance...

Really good work. It's all true. And all you need 'to see life with a second chance' is to take a step back.

It siomply means that you have not found your true love Your searches are leading you to fake lovers who do not linger on to see your worth Once they know you, they leave they have every right to leave and you can wait for the right lover who will not leave you who will get closer and closer till you reach in each other and become one

Let me add a stanza of my powm 'Girls please Listen' Male and Female magnetism is all by nature It’s not just in humans but also in entire species It’s the logic of proliferation of living creature Humans apply romance to this logic Worth, but don’t loose your balance over it. Your Second Chance shows the Balance. Keep going...

Only after the trial the real to be taken Trial teaches how to go about with real. Take this second chance into Real and move ahead. Its good see the courage in taking this second chance Life is after all a wonderful place to explore Where there are many more chances. You will know it in the days to come. Nice one.
