I Wish I Have Loved Someone Who Never Loved Me

Rating: 5.0


I wish I have loved someone who never loved me,
I wish I have seen someone who never cared me,
I only recognize and know him from behind,
To me ignorant rather too careless too unkind,
Who wastes his time, writing poems playing chess,
Writes worthless poems and defeated in games,
Who is called by others with many funny names,
May be old and futile an annoying mess,
Who is at all not needed by a friend or a foe!
What of life even death has nothing but a toe!
When he asks Him for two yards of land,
Silently He smiles says wait for the rand,
He does not understand His smile and rand,
Remains engaged in ifs and buts and and,
Narrates love tails of his youth that are lies,
Could not move on earth but claims the skies,
I don't know where he is and in what disguise,
If you know him, send a pen picture but precise,
I shall say I love you shall not wait for the fate,
I know his response will be nothing but hate.

At least his hate won't result in tears,
But the hate, whom I loved, nears and dears!

Gold asked the iron, we both are beaten by the same hammer but you make much noise whereas I make lesser. Iron replied wait for the day when you will be beaten by a golden hammer.

I sense many emotions in this poem. Written beautifully. We want to love all but not able to. More than that we want to be loved by people around us. Some time that doesn't happen either! These sentiments expressed by your pen are simply touching. Thank you for sharing.

Those who are rejected by others need our love more and if one is large hearted enough to love a man who hates him, it is a wonderful gesture! It is what Jesus exhorted.....' Love your enemies'! Your largesse of heart is reflected through these lines!
