Sorrow Echoes Poem by saif gallant

Sorrow Echoes

Rating: 5.0


She would not stay for me, and who can wonder?
She would not stay for me to stand and gaze.
I shook her hand, and tore my heart in sunder,
And went with half my life about my ways.
No one sees and no one tries 
to find the pain in lonely eyes 
They're strong and bold they hide the tears 
that many people cry in years 
And yet at night when no one's there 
they cry alone but no one cares 
Friendless days and last goodbyes 
lie in the heart of lonely eyes.
Love is rare and it's fair,
About separations, no one cares,
One fine day, she left me alone,
With a reason, dump and thrown.
Society and parental respect,
Everyone is, there to introspect.
Love marriages are tough,
Every genre from Plato to Bieber,
Why patriarchal, so much cares for neighbors,
Breakups, oh breakups you are hard on earth,
Humanity dies, cos our knots aren't of our worth.
Live another day, with pain and sorrow,
Encumbered yet smiles we borrow.
Let's do this and sleep again,
Cos love is nothing but bountiful pain.
