To The Man I Once Loved
A Pure-Hearted Poem
If I ever look into your eyes
And cry a lot
Know that my soul is tired
And looking for some support.
If I ever kiss you
And hug you tight
Know that I was once
Thrown out of sight.
If I ever try to kill myself
And become suicidal
Know that I have suffered a lot
And considered like a whore
In the brothel.
If I ever disappear
And never return to your abode
Know that I am done with this world
And aiming to live my life alone.
*This poem was written on 13th November 2021 and after watching 13 Reasons Why, it became important for me to share it here with you all. I used to be under the impression that all women may not be called a whore, but this series again made me realize not even a single girl has felt safe in their lifetime. They were made to believe something they were not. I am sorry girls for the cruelty this world has shown to you as much as they have shown it to me.
