Confession Poem by VIPINS PUTHOORAN

Confession

Rating: 5.0


Was it the silence of my soul
Or was it the violence of my body
That thrust me;
To climb up to a heap of hope,
To fall into a depth of despair,
When my face bowed to confess,
Before the mirror of the world,
After had my mirror of life broken
And scattered the image of my body to pieces
Before myself pierce my soul?

Confession the prayer has it's importance. Yet, it is way the poet narrated about confession to the world makes the poem colorful. There is punch in the poem displaying powerful meaning. Anyways I like these lines................... 'To a heap of hope I climbed To a depth of despair I fell, When I bowed my face to confess, In front of the mirror of world.' Yet again you rocked the empire of mine. I hope you have rocked many hearts across the world by your awe-inspiring poems with great messages. Thanks to the poem for enlightening me and thanks to the poet for en-kindling inspiration to may souls in the world at large. Perfect 10 is not enough. So my generous heart gives 10++++++++++++++++
