Me

In front of thousands or more I surrendered I held her hand, brought her home She was called my wife. She too submitted to me and my family marriage was consummated I made love She lost her virginity. We were now man and wife I followed all rituals like all couples do. Now she even bears my child but lord oh lord there is another who bears my soul. Shubhra, 17th June 07

A Single Woman

Men, whatever their status married or single whatever their age old or young want her Women, the married ones envy her space her freedom the younger ones idolize her success her independence Parents, worry and silently hope Bosses, prefer her to her married counterparts Friends, count on her for her availability They see success freedom independence space they see it all yet they don't see much most wanted and yet she feels so unwanted. Goes back at night to an empty house an empty bed sleeps cuddled with her teddy bear waking up alone to another day gets ready puts on her best dress and that dab of mascara with the mask on she is now ready to face life again to conquer a few more hearts to be wanted again Shubhra 17th March, 2007 edited on July 3, 2007
