In hollow hours,
In pristine white,
Mourning, she sat,
In her lonely fight,
She counted her hours….
Her days and years
In agony, in misery…
And In silent fear
The muted tears
Rolled down the faded cheeks
Neither mirth, nor time
Made it bleak…
The longing for love
The craving for crowd
Dead Life alive
Wailed aloud
But ears were deaf
And the eyes were blind
All freedom caged
And the life declined
A mirror, a brook….
A canvas blank
A hollow soul,
Hollowed more as the hours sank
She sat and summed,
The reveling souls
And dreamt of slumber,
A tragic hyperbole
She desired to love
To play once more
To embrace again
But the dreadful gore? ?
It made her love,
But love death and sorrow …
Cause wife to the Dead
Shall see no tomorrow! !

The sufferings of widows vividly sketched here. A very good poem. Thanks. Tapas, West Bengal, India.
the last verse really clinces it for me as it brings the poem to a sad climax and all leaves no hope. Great poem.
