Unknown Sister

Rating: 4.3


I asked for a sister and soon after -
You breathed in my mothers womb
The garden of our family seemed to bloom
A Joyous life ahead was what we all assumed.

Alas! To the dawn you never awoke.
How can I possibly remember the face I never got to see?
Tell me, how do I love the one who never got to be?
How do I mourn the death of the one who never knew me?

'Love you ', my unknown sister!
You are an angel in my memory,
You lived a life of darkness, though in a hurry
This bitterness and antagonism, how can i bury?

You Live in my dreams
A life like no one else has ever seen
My stillborn sister we both are akin
In your next birth your luck will surely grin.

Life's a see-saw of joy and pain
And for many, like you, its ceases to begin
Having lost out in the game of life, but deep within
My Portarit of thoughts - a chance to live you deserve to win.

A wonderful poem, Preeti. For someone who didn't experience this, you've done a marvelous job with such a sad subject. The love literally flows through it. Warmest regards and respect, CJ

The way you utilise your power of the HUMANE aspect in yourself is just un-matched. How you do visualise and then able to pen those painful moments? This is indeed a skill so rare. I am sure with age you will grow up to make a difference in this world.... and that is waht is important.
