An Answer Poem by Preetam Shetty
An Answer
(This poem is dedicated to my friend who feels that her birth was responsible for destroying a happy family)
Up above in the heaven,
It hurts; I do cry,
When you blame yourself,
For the reason I did die.
Let me tell you a story,
About me; and my history,
Story in which there is no gain,
All you will find is pain.
When my journey began,
Happiness I wanted to borrow,
But always destiny shied,
All I got was sorrow.
Life was very dull,
All I learnt was to sulk,
But yet I wanted to wait,
Day happiness will come in bulk.
A day came to me an angel,
The one whom you call your mother,
I was growing very confident,
Now love will never smother.
Life was getting cheerful,
As days began to pass,
I can’t really express,
How happy I was.
Then came the moment,
In happiness I leapt,
My angel carried in her womb,
My most precious gift.
But again called the divine,
Told the day you will be born,
That will be the day,
Your mother will be gone.
When you creator heard this,
She happily took the knife,
All she ever wanted,
Was to get you a beautiful life.
Days when she was gone,
Whenever I heard your cry,
Felt the pain in your voice,
Then I wanted to die.
But I loved you my baby,
For your pains I was upset,
I swear whenever I held you,
I smiled, there was no regret.
Even today I coax the divine,
To get you happiness every day,
I am sorry, I lost patience,
The date was 31st May.
a sad thought that someone would belame themselves for such things, its a great piece

Thats sad for putting herself in such a position.The anguish of believing that you are the scar of a healing wound, a constant reminder.But its not her fault, fate present us with the course we need to follow and we dont have a choice, how we follow it, its up to us.Almost 1: 3 people feels this way at certain stages of their lives in the whole world.Keep writing you awakens a lot of people.

such nonsensical beliefs are spread in India and in other asian countries. we have to write against it and make people conscious about the facts of such beliefs. sad thing is that we bring God in between. it is sublime duty that you are doing as a poet to tell people such thoughts are bad.spread the message and bring back our society to normal thinking. thank you for this good work.
