Sonnet 6: Reason To Survive Poem by Banik Rai

Sonnet 6: Reason To Survive

Rating: 4.5


Neither have I told her, nor doth
She know how much love I own
The Divine has blessed her all known
Beauty of Earth that none can loathe
Her. I too have taken an oath
To love her, though she has shown
Hers to another, making me alone
Not with her but myself I am wroth
As even being so close, quiet I became
Without her, life is but futile to live
Like a setting sun, like a lost game
Everything contains this Earth and I've
Got nought but her memories to claim
That I have a reason to survive.

So beautifully done, and what make it even beautiful is your vulnerability in expressing your deep emotion, your feeling...that give such a soul to your poem. You did a great job here, although i am not poem expert but i would say that because i feel it through your write. Apart from that, living life has some period of bitterness and lonesome, anyway behold to your strongest will in you and you will enter to brighter phase too, like everybody else...everybody does feel hurt, so this is fine, just keep your life worth to live because, you are worth it.
