आङ्ग्ल कविता विजय निकोर

English Poetry:

OF TRAILING PAIN

Vijay Nikore

*

Not long after we met

I had an ominous feeling

that it was not going to last

that we

             had to part ...

The child in me suspicious

and yet hoping against hope

as if

there will be a day

a miracle will show

and you will hurt me no more...

        waiting, waiting, ...waiting!

Yes, not long after we met

I knew

we had to go our separate ways,

but

        did you have to be so cruel? ...

Especially knowing

that there is a child in me?

               ------
