I Didnot Bend So Am Broken Poem by Anjesh shekhar

I didnot say
niether you asked,
now we are away-
on different paths.
and now i have realised
what I have lost.


I wasn't ready to accept,
that I could love again.
didnot see it apt,
to love someone who saw me through the pain.

Perhaps I was afraid,
of playing the game.
or perhaps of
losing again.


So I buried my love,
under the mountain of morals,
kept telling myself I wasn't sober,
And it's bound to get over,
but it kept growing like corals,
filling the cove,
and came out like a volcano,
but when? - I donot know.


Perhaps it was the day,
when you were suddenly gone,
before I could even say,
'keep in touch through phone'.


Or perhaps was the day,
when I kept believing thee,
even when people warned me,
telling me about your 'past-way'.


It's waste to contemplate,
yet I am doing the same,
instead of trying to reach you,
Which I can very easily do,
And get over this pain.,
But I know I won't,
It is not that I can't,
Its just that I am not ready to bend!


I didnot bend then,
see, now I am broken.
And i have lost you,
Without you even knowing,
that how much I loved you,
But still I havent learned any lesson.


while talking about love, Wilde,
perhaps missed some chord.
That love can also be killed,
Without any words and by being hard.
