Do You Know!
Do you
know…I am already dressed in my shimmery trail of flow,
I am already
adorned with the gold and shine, tip to toe.
My mother
just put the red glittery shine vale on my head,
Shyly I
stole my eyes away and couldn’t raise my eyes till the shed.
Do you
know…My mother’s tears fell on the shimmer of my trail, I could see,
And I tried
to search for it, to keep it safe in my treasure because she is the most
precious for me.
But soon it
got disappeared ‘coz my mother hid her tears behind her charming smile,
I know she
is happy because it’s you, but still you are taking me away from her, far a
mile.
Do you
know…My father himself slid those bangles into my slender wrist, he wanted to
do it.
I controlled
my emotions when he did that, but he couldn’t and it tore my heart apart, but I
hid,
He took me
into his arms and wanted not to leave me away, never, ever, just like a small
kid.
But then
even he gathered himself and brought back that captivating smile and
majesticness.
Do you
know…My best friend, my soul mate, My Sister came running with my favorite
teddy to pack,
She didn’t
cry, but was happily upset to let go off me with you on a different track.
She has
always been the strongest pillar, always right, inviolable, and as soft as a
bird’s murmur,
She gave all
the strength to all of us, but I was worried who will give the strength to her,
The pundit
asked us to go to the holy place for the union wedlock,
And I
thought as if I was choked right there and there was both a push and a pull, at
the tick of the clock.
As my
parents held my sides and took me there, I had a brain freeze and a numb feet,
A gush of
emotions and a memoir of life swept away the feel of the moment, and was there
to greet.
Grew up
sitting on my father’s shoulders, shared my mother’s laugh,
I couldn’t
understand the feeling of my crying heart, saw my heart tear into two half.
Asked God
why he designed the world this way,
He answered,
Oh my child! I did it so that you hold everything and not let anything to sway
Life is strange,
a girl while tying the knot, has hundreds of thoughts swirling in her head,
while she leaves behind her life, her freedom, her room, her curtains, her
teddy, her smell and her name too. Finding a son for her parents is difficult,
but lucky are they who find sons who stand by and let her stand by too. Do you
know…You have to remember this and respect, because even I will remember and
respect. A balance meant for life…because it’s very difficult for the girl, who
steps out and craves to get back in.
