The Pains Of A Poet

Rating: 5.0


O God!
You have made the poet
only to realise the pains of others
but there is none in this world
who can understand the pains of a poet
only you are, who is invisible
to whom the poet expresses his pains
if you can discern his pains
otherwise he has to hug all pains of his life
and be immortal like Lord Shiva
who drunk all poisons of creation
to save the creation and became immortal

Thanks a lot Ramesh Sir, for sharing your painful experience and how you dealt with that particular situation. If this had happened in PH then I understood what can be done. But this is done by the person known to me and already got appreciation for it. It came as a shock. I felt the person slapped me silently... But, Person will surely realize it later...truth is really bitter, unable to face especially when people are known. But I have to face courageously, especially my mind as It shook me deeply. To convince self and to feel positiveness, I told myself I am happy, I can come up, a day will come when my stars will shine. I have to let it go off. Sure Sir, you can share this on FB or twitter, I too shared in FB. Thanks a lot Sir. I am humbled..

Nice comparison of a poet's pain with Lord Shiva who drunk the poison of all creation. A poet is a representative of the world and its belongings whatever it is! It may be love, joy, sorrow, pain, tragedy or comedy he / she have to present it with a commitment. now you described the Poet's Pain. that is a very good tribute. Loved It! God Bless You!

-Both Shiva and Krishna drunk pain and poison with passion.Shiva became Mahesh therefore or mashallah-jo Mahesh wohi allah and Krishna became Christ Jesus who beared untold tortures.People are not intelligent like Gods.They are subject to make mistakes and then sob for solutions.For the poet, they can only be messengers for God, from God to humans.Poet itself therefore is God.And poetry is his or her divine creation unless its alloyed propagandas misdirecting humans.
