The green curtain and the silver sword

The green curtain and the silver sword

A Poem by dushsen

Knowing still,

That the world is small,

That she would meet him again…

Once again!

Her heart ached!

 

Not knowing,

If it was sadness of leaving,

Or happiness of hope,

She stepped into the car…

With perplexity!

 

Lost in thought,

No chill

Did the AC bring on her!

She was still,

With trees and side railings moving!

 

Looking out,

She merely saw

A moving green curtain,

So long, she thought

That it spread to eternity!

 

The luscious green,

Gave her hope!

But the silver railing,

Felt like a sword,

That chases her

To incise her,

Wherever her life becomes green,

Chilled her spine!

Remembering him,

Who merely used her!

And destroyed her!

 

Further away,

She went,

The silver disappeared!

So did the fear of confronting,

A world of enemies…

Leaving her with

Only a green curtain!

Surprisingly to her…

With no heaviness,

But Happiness in her heart!!!

With a motto added to the last stanza, this can be a fable..

In fact getting to know who you are, is a very complex procedure. But an easy way out is the "playing of words" that can make you get to know the real "YOU". Poetry lets you express the ideas that are.. more..
