To mend that imperfect line,
I look for words again,
A lost poet tries hard,
To dip his love in sea of pain.
If words ever mattered,
If words ever mattered,
I would have found a way,
You walk over the tottered pages,
Where my afraid dreams lay.
My heart beats in stern silence,
My heart beats in stern silence,
I care not for the blessed rhyme,
I have lost my song,
In the noise of indifferent time.
I still love for the sake of love,
I still love for the sake of love,
And love talks in broken sighs,
Have you noticed the blood,
In my two smiling eyes.
Desperate to lose it all,
Desperate to lose it all,
I walk to the edge of dark,
I have hoped long to heal,
My wounds remain open and stark.
To mend that imperfct line,
To mend that imperfct line,
I look for words again,
Why write a poem for you,
Words are destined to go in vain.

It was like the thunder, a bolt of lightning strong, fierce, and knightly!
absolutely.. totally agreed with piyush,... a masterwork it is!
phew.. i wish i could write sooo effectively!!
Nice write... :)
While the poem had been well writ, my absolute favourite are the third and the fourth stanza. There is just one thing that I didnt exactly agree with, that is :
[A lost poet tries hard,
To dip his love in sea of pain.]
I belive, while individually these two lines are extremely significant, they dont match with the poem's mood completely, or rather clash here:
[I have hoped long to heal,
My wounds remain open and stark.]
Yet, U kno, what I feel is, that each poet has a reason to put words the way they come, so U must have a completely justified, even if not explicable reason for this clash of words, Mr. Lost poet! :P
All in all, what I mean to say is, that the poem IS good. And please, putone of your poems about writers and poets, U know where, exactly where I too put them! ;)
That is a masterpiece! Loved it!
Amazing poetry!
Thank you every one.. Piyush, Vijay, Akanksha :) Am delighted with your compliments :)
