A Joy Of A Moment, Pain Of Lifetime Poem by Soumya Dash

I was walking on the lane, when somebody called me on
a cute lass that was, on sun's light her face shone! !
She stared at me with a gaze that wud turn anyone on
I was happy, finally life was going to be fun! !

I held her hand, we walked fast towards my room
my mind's full of ideas of the game we wud play soon
i fumbled with the keys, like a desperate moron
she bit her lips and laughed seeing me frown! !

Soon the doors were open, we forgot to switch on the light
i was over her, she was over me, rolling with delight
soon i was pullin' her pants, ready for a fight
and we made a hasty love, oh, what a beautiful sight! !

I woke up the next day, she was not there, she was gone
cursing myself, why i didnt ask her name, i was so lone
prepared myself for office, into reality i was thrown
And my life was the usual, as usual it cud have gone! !

After a year! !

Sippin' coffee in my flat, i felt a pain in my chest
rushed off to the doc and waited in line for my test
the reports came, the doc was as silence as his best
said, I have AIDS, must have done something in haste...

and flashes of that fateful day danced around my eyes.....

i never found that girl, never intended to find her again
and the news leaked out in my office, like a fire in the train
i became weaker everyday, cudn't anymore work out my brains
was kicked outta' the office and deserted by my friends! !

I stopped going out, my room became my world
and never had medications, i waited for my fate
on the day, i knew wud be my last day, last day of life
i was happily preparing my favorite curry with no worry
when i recieved a letter which said....By Alisha..... I am sorry...
