Heartache Poem by ritty patnaik

Heartache

Rating: 1.5


the oyster does not know
she holds a pearl in her,
as the rose, does not realise
she is in a bed of thorns!

the sea cannot fathom
mind of the river,
and the night about
the dreams of nocturnal birds.

the moon does not realise
the path it shows to weary travellers
and the sun, not aware of,
its life giving gift to nature.

the world, does not understand,
the ways of love,
love does not heed, to
to the ways of the world.
when lover is far, far away,
the mind cannot rest a while,

the mind cannot gage the deapth
of sorrow so unkind

so it remains like a ache
, in the core of the heart.
asking many questions,
expecting no answers!
