H U S B A N D...... Poem by RAVIKIRAN ARAKKAL

I was faith in all sense,
In thought, speech and action,
Dedicated to the wife,
He lived his life for her,
Taking her every where he went,
Doing many chores for her,
He was ready to die for her even,
While she was childlike,
Abusing at every turn
Of her childish mind,
Sometimes turning violent,
even when he looked
At other damsels,
donning herself with innocent
Yet ruthless doubt,
Her heart week, sometimes
Bedridden, she gave a sort
Of hellish experience
Even which he felt heavenly,
He was a husband
Of many a ones alike,
Wondering the woman hood
And her companionship
A bit too hard to bear.with.
