YOU!A Poem by NayanHave you come across someone who changes your heart, the way you think, you life, and you yourself? Don't you think that, that 'someone' comes at different times and as various persons in our lives!
I am
not what I was Two
years back But
for You! You
made me feel What
is Affection! You
made me know What
is Care! You
made me realise What
is Love! I am
not what I was Two
years back But
for You! Sweetness!
As it is called Eluded
me, even though It
was all around! My
heart locked by my brain Could
not feel! You
made me see What
is Sweetness! I am
not what I was Two
years back But
for You! Angry
I was, as I was rude Stupid
I was, as I was harsh So
indifferent and so cruel! Not
to strangers But
to my own! You
showed to me What
is Light! I am
not what I was Two
years back But
for You!
Who
loved me, And
whom did I hate? Who
comforted me, And
whom did I hurt? Who
supported me, And
whom did I ignore? Who
blessed me, And
whom did I curse? YOU! I am
not what I was Two
years back But
for You! The
chance I got And
the chance I wasted! The
love I received And
the love I rejected! The
advice I had And
the advice I ignored! But
for one more chance To
make up for (mis)deeds My
brain washed away By
pearls from my eyes! Heart
unlocked! Got
first chance of affection I
re-lived with pain and joy! I am
not what I was Two
years back But
for You! Death
I saw, then I saw Life! Hate
I lived, then I lived Love! Stone
I was, and then I became Water! And
two years after, I am much better! ‘Hope’ That
takes one from being Lost To
being regognised! ‘Belief’ That
transforms one from Evil To
Good! ‘Love’ That
melts one from Snow To
River! But
for me, One
more - Distance! Learnt
I that I never learnt before! I am
not what I was Two
years back But
for You! No
one, No one can see The
changes in me Are
because of thee Greatness
personified in the Almighty! Sweetness
that touches your heart! Silence
that knocks your door! Beauty
that encompasses your thought! Serenity
that enthralls your body! Stone
- That would not have melted! Roughness
- That would not have withered! But
for Words so Soft! But
for Affection so Innocent! I am
not what I was Two
years back But
for You! Whatever
you be, Whoever
you be, Whatever
relation there be Between
You and Me! My
sister! My mother! My father! My friend! You
gave direction to my emotions! You
gave meaning to my life!
And
I Need
no longer gifts with a price! Already
I have plenty Countless
and Priceless in YOU! NAYAN 11:52 pm IST 10th Nov’ 09 Kottur,
