Loneliness

Loneliness




When nobody care, you remain there
in your embrace I get rid of despair.

you explain me complexities of life,
you are a true partner, my right pair
when world restricts me to patiently thrive,
you pacify me, to confront you they never dare.

you never judge me, never grudge on me,
In good or bad , you always adhere,
When everybody leaves me alone,
O! Loneliness you owns me and take care.

When nobody care, you remain there
in your embrace I get rid of despair.

This poem is linked to Poetry Jam ( Loneliness)

    We all need that embrace but sometimes it can be too much to live with. Life is so full of complexity.

    i agree, we all need to think that people care...touch and embrace is so important as well...and when you feel no one does the world gets all the colder

    I believe your poem to express the idea that in being alone one can find oneself refreshed & rid oneself of despair. I do think this is sometimes true. We can find the way oftentimes in a solitary sort of way!

    Loneliness can be helpful if treated in a good way! It can be depressing if out of control! Wonderful lines Cifar!

    I found it very interesting that you took loneliness to be the opposite of despair. In my mind I normally equate the two.

    A unique response to the prompt. We all need explanations of life's complexities sometimes.

    A hopeful poem. True partner is the one who embraces you with all your flaws and complexity without any prejudices. I can relate to it. Touch wood! :)

    I love how you seek the loneliness to be a way to heal you from despair. Sometimes we have to seek and embrace it.

    I am not sure if you are talking about a person, or that loneliness itself helps you reflect… either way, very nice.

    Yes, there comes, at times, the need of that special hug. Nice one!!

    I understand what you're saying here since I've been in this place which often has brought out the poetry inside of me. Loneliness does not have to be a bad thing to be feared or despised. It's a state that brings us back to ourselves when others cannot fulfill the need that we have.

    Paradoxical beauty you have expressed in these lines.

Raksha Bandhan - Jiski Bahan Nahin Hoti.

रक्षा बंधन - जिसकी बहन नहीं होती। Raksha Bandhan - Jiski Bahan Nahin Hoti. Raksha Bandhan is an Indian festival of brother-sister love in which sister tie a rakhi (sacred thread) on her brother's hand and wishes for his long-life while brother promises to protect her and take care of her in every possible way. Sadly the country which celebrate such a unique festival reports incidents of Honor Killing and has a high rate of crime against women. Lets pledge to respect each women equally this Raksha Bandhan as a mark of  honor for your sister. In this Hindi Kavita (Poem) I have tried to express what all those devoid of sisters are missing in their life. It is also reminder to all those who have sisters but take these advantages as granted without caring for their sisters.  Happy Raksha Bandhan to all. सूनी कलाई, सूना बचपन, सूना आगन हो जाता है, जिसकी बहन नहीं होती सूना उसका जीवन हो जाता है।  Suni Kalai, Suna Bachpan, Suna Aagan Ho Jata Hai, Jiski Baha...

The Seven Stages Of Love

The Seven Stages Of Love(इश्क़ के सात मक़ाम) Arabic literature and sufi traditions describes seven stages of love and after the movie 'Dedh Ishqiya'  all of us also knew that these seven stages of love are दिलकशी (Attraction),उन्स (Attachment),मोहब्बत (Love),अक़ीदत (Trust/Reverence),इबादत (Worship),जूनून (Madness) and मौत (Death) . At this time of the year ( Valentine Week) when the   Love is in the air    I am sharing my couplets (शेर ) which are based on these seven stages of love written at different times. I hope you will like my effort and share anything related to these seven stages of love at the comment section of this post. The best couplet ( शेर ) will be posted with your name on my Facebook page ( Fans Of Poetry ). 1. दिलकशी (Attraction) : The first stage of love where eyes meet,spark is initiated and the journey of love begins. वो मेरी तरफ देख कर गुज़र गए, ना कुछ कहा ना बात की, ना रुक के मुलाकात की, डाल कर मुझपर बस एक नज़र गुज़र...

Na Muhn Chupa Ke Jiye Hum Na Sar Jhuka Ke Jiye

न मुहँ छुपा के जीए हम न सर झुका के जीए। (Na Muhn Chupa Ki Jiye Hum Na Sar Jhuka Ke Jiye) -  I am sharing here a ' Qita ' written by Sahir Ludhianvi which is recently used in Hindi movie 'Sanju '. A song inspired from it also penned by Sahir for the film ' Humraaz' (1967 ) staring Sunil Dutt in the lead role. Literal meaning of Qata is ‘separated’. Qata stands for a series of couplets in a ghazal having continuity of thought. A ghazal having one or more Qatas is called Qata-Band ghazal . Qatas also have independent existence comprising at least four lines. In a Qata , the second and fourth lines follow the same rhyming scheme. (Qita meaning from Rekhta ). Here I have tried to translate it.  न मुँह छुपा के जिए हम न सर झुका के जिए,  सितमगरों की नज़र से नज़र मिला के जिए, अब एक रात अगर कम जिए तो कम ही सही,  यही बहुत है कि हम मिशअलें जला के जिए।  Na Muhn Chupa Ke Jiye Hum Na Sar Jhuka Ke Jiye, Sitamgaron Ki Nazar Se Nazar M...
