Yet Unfulfilled




[Synopsis: Disappointment is an enigma-both trifle and huge! Our expectations –towards friends and family are essential, but in a manner tests our belief in our own stands. This poem doesn’t complain of a person being left alone but softly takes the blame on oneself for being too emotionally insecure. The first time I try on three- lined verses. Read on.. ]










Yet Unfulfilled


Born under an unlucky star
All wishes dying under desperate despair
Some did come true but half and unfair

Of burning charcoal, remembered only in the cold
My soul keeps the life in it tight and behold
When all my ideals are useless, old and sold

Loneliness, being still in a crowd shows
A face scared of all friendly foes
A heart cut and bent of which only God knows

Of wars being waged many an instance
None a soul bearing an acceptance
Again, my wishes handicapped on a life long sentence

When life finds loneliness a companion better
Till emotions turn less tear and more of water
And just die or shatter or scatter

An unlucky birth born only to serve
All beauty and charm lost none to preserve
Devoid of all laurels it might as well be worth and deserve

Yet my ideals get guarded in a more deeper shell
To this sympathetic world however cheap they sell
Though unfulfilled yet carried thru my grave and beyond till hell
