He broke my heart and left me desolate,
Just when I thought my life was beginning!
The haunting thought keeps coming back – I hate;
Is life’s game over or just one inning?
I try forgetting him in every way;
But that is not as easy as I thought;
His memories flash in mind almost each day;
Like a love-bird in a cage, now I am caught!
He was a person nice then, after all;
I wonder how he changed his mind and heart!
In slumber deep, I seem to hear his call;
Why did he ever leave me and depart?
I trusted him: He is not to be blamed;
Why he behaved in this peculiar way?
I lament as my heart is bruised and maimed;
Will God soon heal my wound, I plead and pray?
In life, some things do happen in queer ways;
Our human mind can’t decipher all things;
With hope renewed, we trudge our earthly days;
I yearn for what a better morrow brings!
