When A Poem Is Done Poem by Pradip Chattopadhyay

When A Poem Is Done

Rating: 5.0


I come out no stronger
when a poem is all over.

come down to earth on broken wing
words gone dry heart bleeding
with me not even making a beginning!

When a poem is done
it tells me
you've not yet begun
not done your part
and still stuck at the start!

I come out no stronger
when a poem is over.

the mind for sometimes hover
falls down with broken wing
words gone dry heart bleeding
with me not even making a beginning!

When a poem is done
it tells me
I'm left undone
mere ink on paper without a soul,
when one more dream of mine you stole.

You don't know how much your poems are appreciated and enjoyed. Maybe you don't feel stronger after writing, but the readers are rewarded by your effort and all your hard work. Your feelings and spirit go into every word you write, so your poems do have a soul... a beautiful one. Please keep writing.

Thank God Poet's are not the final arbiters of their own work! You may be no stronger, but truly you are more loved! Battle on Crusader of the Heart! As for stolen dreams, is that even possible? Dreams are so ephemeral. How could this be accomplished? Maybe it still belongs to you and was just borrowed? Is that so bad?
