My PainA Poem by premaYoga nidra -Yogic slumber I can hardly call this as a poem ,but it is my pain anyway
Though born in God's own country
Where He poses in Yoga nidra I am destined to have my share of pain The pain of mind's wakefulness It's also a land of backwaters The held back water influence its people I for one have the spirit to match Gushing waterfalls, another feature of land My own mind is the cause of misery Knowing me well one rich sadist Bought a poor man as husband Promptly took place the wedding with treachery as base My love for nature the sadist knows Our home was set in a place Where there is no dearth of bounty To crown all it"s rich in culture too Before I took the reins of new life Sadist dictated my life, me unaware With the lightness a director direct a movie My life got squeezed like that in celluloid frames Though sadist, he had a flair To see that something in me He knew what he couldn't have So from far he got vicariously He then had a gala time For he could read my mind He got nourished in nature and culture At the cost of a paltry sum to husband He grew tall to become a poet He sang praises of love and nature That could draw all and sundry to him Even the husband, only I was left out Though locked inside home Mind could drift to lands of choice Leaving body limp and numb It's also tied to other pressures The pain of loneliness and longiness One needs to live in that to know Miles away I yearned for my Lord He who does pretentious(?) sleep Mind in its wakefulness Longs for that fulfillment After a slumber what it missed Comes back as a lingering pain Isn't it wakeful time for Him To comfort me and confront the sadist Me who treats myself as His daughter Mind then rest in peace. © 2014 prema |
