hashtagadultery

As she sings her little child a lullaby,

Gently kisses her forehead as he sleeps,

Her bitter reality strikes her consciousness,

And the darkness gradually creeps.

The guy of forty, sleeping besides her

Who she mentions as the father to her son

Was once her husband, the man she got wedded to

Till the day she found him with another woman.

Yet she solemnly sleeps with this man

Not giving him a hint that she's aware

Of his adultery through all these years

And the waste he made out of her care.

She's used to crying a river all night

 Waking up fresh and jubilant with the morning ray

With a calm veil she manipulated herself

To act dauntless and rigid every another day.

How great an actor he is, he must be thinking

For being able to hide his affair and cheating,

But when he hid his external satisfaction from his wife

She had been covering her internal pain all her life.

I wasn’t taught to speak what I think

But to judge,

Judge before I deliver

Judge whether the thing I am supposed to say

Matched with the idea of others

So, I had to read,

Read not only my mind but of others too

Read what their reactions could be

For I was said, not to say

The things that others don’t want to hear

Thus, I feared

Feared taking wrong decisions

Feared reaching out my emotions

Feared being laughed at

This fear I didn’t bring it from the womb

But the world instilled in me as a gift

That shall not leave me even in my tomb .

Knowing him wasn't in my plan

Falling for him wasn't expected

But I was trapped in his chains

My soul was now captivated,

Ecstatic was everything when I first got close

He smelled sweet , his feel being distinct

Nothing on earth could beat the way

He studied me in brief and my instinct,

Slow and steady he changed his shades

From bright to dark as he went

My life changed from best to worst

And I saw him turn devil from saint.

I was a bird ready to take a flight

To the height of mountains and above

He wanted to chop off my wings

And cage me in the name of love,

Found a way to escape one day

I left his terror, left his cage

Where neither him nor his shadow could follow

And where I could start a brand new page.
