I Died Last Night

The eyes had didn’t have any tears left,
The moist lashes were a thing of the past,
Nothing could bring the water down,
The face even was devoid of smile or frown,
It looked like as if it was like a stone,
Just made of flesh and bone,

The heart beat was boring and slow,
As if the blood had no flow,
But there were some questions in his mind,
Whose answers he could never find,
The fight between love and hate,
The battle between desire and fate,

The feelings had been slayed with a blunt blade,
Even the memories now had begun to fade
The sky depicted the life’s track,
As it turned from blue to black,
Soon it would turn into a morning blue,
As if life had something new,
The soul was still alive,
But there was a fact in the current plight,

I had died last night…………………………………..

The Bitter Medicine

It is difficult to understand what is bitter?Is it the unreciprocated love? Is it the unresponsive friendship? Is it someones ignorance ? the list could be endless.........................
As a kid i thought the most bitter thing in this world was the medicine i used to have , i would cry and run away but my brother would catch me and force me to have it, and the he would give me a tofffee so that my taste buds would feel better.It was such a magical cure ,but today I am grown up,bitterness has changed in its form and also its effects.

It refuses to go away.How much amount of sweets i may take, it refuses to go.I wondered why was it so ,i tried to reason but struggled, why was this bitterness of a friend, a lover leaves such bad and long lasting taste? why is so difficult to get over ................................whenever our feelings are hurt , whenever our friendship is questioned ? when someones doesnt want us in their life ?
and so on ......................but all these have a common factor
" All humiliate us and our dignity"
there is no harm in being humililated.

Humiliation is a bitter medicine and an honest man should drink with pride
