Compromise Poem by ashok jadhav

Compromise

Compromise arrives where certainty must bend,
A quiet pact between the heart and time;
It asks us not for victory, but to mend
The rigid lines of hope we once made prime.
We trade the sharp edge of what we demand
For something softer, less exact, yet real;
With open palms, we learn to understand
What must be spared, and what we let time steal.
It is not weakness, though it feels like loss,
Nor surrender dressed in gentler tone;
It is the wisdom paid at human cost,
To choose the shared path over standing alone.
Thus compromise, though never purely kind,
Keeps love alive by teaching hearts to find.
