A Girl's Life

She was born
into, a world of sorrows
where, no one has
time to borrow
where what you want to be
is what you can never be
a world of horrors
where everything
is a comedy of errors.....

Yet she dreamed
dreamed of her prince charming
to free her
of bondages of society
take her away
away into a world of their own
their own shell
of sanctity and love

They told her
she was stupid
in this world
there is no cupid
fairy tales are for books
not for people
just high on looks
But, Magical or hysterical....
life some times works wonders you know

Yes, he came
like the chilly breeze of summer
and swept her away
off her feet she was flying
swimming in
unknown seas
drowning in the
feelings of love
She thought she would be happy
Funny games fate can play.....

The world tried
to tear them apart
told her she was
blind at heart
For him, She left them all
he was all
she needed after all
and together they rode
on and on on life's road

Then there were
days of love
and nights of passion
together they reached
heights never felt before
for the first time
she felt she had it all
But the devil was smiling
for his moment waiting
Fate plays terrible games you know

She was happy
now they would be a family
a happy family
a family she longed for
her child would have it all
what she always wanted
what she never got
it would grow in
the shadows of her love
away from hate.

That morning
when he was leaving
for earning
to make a living
she told him.......
he was exited
happy for her and for himself
and he left
leaving her waiting

She waited
for hours and hours together
longing his touch
awaiting his shelter
unknown to her
in the room
there he was
mocking her
on her face laughing
the devil.....

Now she was scared
afraid of deceit
for the first time in her life
she was scared
then it rang
the phone it did
and she ran for it
as if her life was on it
Her heart panting

They told her
he was no more
gone for ever
never to come back
And then she cried
as she had never before
sinking into
sea of tears she cried

Lost was what
she felt
in the realms of reality
caught in games
of life and death
she felt empty
slowly a new fear
crept on her

She was alone
and carrying his seed
What would she do
Who would she turn to
she had left all for him
and now he was gone
The seriousness
dawned on her
Yes she was lost

That night
it rained
as it had never before
as if the gods were crying
in her pain
joining
for this girl
who lost all tonight

In the darkness of her room
she stood up
the knowledge of her future
shined in her eyes
she looked at her belly
and felt sad for her child
but what could she do
the pain of separation
was too much

She cut it open
her vein she did
lying on the floor
drowning in the pool of blood
she lay there
her heart sinking
her vision blurring
her life seeping
she lay there..............

Elle The PoetBay support member heart!
It is very sad, a lot of emotion I can see went into this and it shows, which is always, I think a plus in poetry.

Only one tiny niggle from me, I personally hate to see 'u' for you in a poem, I know its not important but for me, when a poem is as soulful as this, I find it detracts. Otherwise, keep your heart and your feelings and write
