    Now...this is the second poem of my friend which i promised to post earlier...
    You'll be amazed the way the poem is approached.
    I already did my bit of appreaciation.




    A Gift, Godsend

    It is a beautiful day,
    the sun is smiling away,
    the sky is clear and blue,
    the birds are singing loud and true.

    Surprisingly, my mind is sad,
    the entire day seems very bad,
    the sun looks reproachful, the sky empty,
    the birds seem to accuse me of being guilty.

    In this selfish world , there is a girl,
    in exchange her tears, I'd give her my whole.
    Mind like a diamond, a heart of gold,
    a deep remorse fills me, my heart can't hold.

    For I hurt a heart that cares for me the most,
    I steered my lifeboat away from its coast.
    My heart burns with shame,
    by hurting her, I gave myself pain.

    She is wounded, yet it is I who bleed,
    How ironic, how cruel is fate indeed.
    I wish she'd yell, I wish she'd fight,
    I wish she'd speak to me ...just once,
    and it would be alright.

    I wish she'd realise she's my sweetest friend,
    my advisor,my strength, my gift, my godsend. ​





    now that you have finished reading... its your turn to express yourself how do you feel.

    heaved a sigh of relief thinking this would be a poem on bright and happy note and the first stanza affirmed that but suddenly it went grey...technically speaking u took it towards the darker side very abruptly and subtly contradicted but that successfully depicts "the blue" state o mind.

    i'd say.. nice one! :)
