The Break up

The Break up

A Poem by Bala Gorthi

Today I came out and so heartlessly you surrounded me
You pricked with that harsh touch and made me flee
Those warm hugs seem to me like a matter of past
How can I bear your changed persona till the last
Can't love this new you.Oh Hello,Who are you?
When people saw your new avatar around
They all changed their guards abound
No one here seems to mind but I do...
I can't live with one who can turn so cold
You look like a stranger in wet blanket bold
I never thought our relation would end like this..
Your cruel touch overwrites those days of bliss
The embrace that sizzled me once holds no longer
I shall take refuge in the arms of my warm comforter
Let's BREAK UP for now till you meet me in another form
Oh my winter, we can renew our bond once you turn warm..

This is one of the best poems of yours that I've read so far! I love this. I can totally relate to the dislike of the cold & dark season of winter, plus the way this represents people who "go cold" on me suddenly without explanation. Your rhyming works well with many sensory observations well-expressed. I love the "new avatar" line, which is a nice modern twist on old man winter (as we call him sometimes)! (((HUGS)))

Wow, Bala..
Though i like cold weather a lot i do understand your perspective.Your encounter with the winter is summed up beautifully through this write. And the title has quite amused me...i really love the way you bring that punch at the ending.
This writing also has a subtle linking of those cold relationships that breaks you from the core.
Very nice :-) :-)

I agree with BG....this is your most poetic write yet!

Your rhythm and flow is very consistent and the rhyme is getting better with every poem you write. Very well done, Bala.

There are many of us that can relate to this theme; the end of a relationship. You have given the reader a thorough grounding of the emotions that such an occasion invokes. A very fine piece of writing.

When a warm relationship suddenly turns cold, it seldom reverts back to the original warmth. The emotional pain is strong in this one, Bala. Lydi**
