Lament beside Seashore

Lament beside Seashore

A Poem by Pradeep Nair
"

Every eyes has tears ... every heart has pain and love.. The eternal feelings!! Tears can be called tears when it originates from heart..

"

I was on the dusky seashore

On the silky sands lined with surf

Cold of dusk was felt on numb feet

Like the shock of an electric eel

 

Salinity was breath in the air

Salt got on to the corners of eyes

Where it burnt on the soft tissues

Started to mix with the wetness there

 

The burning began to haze my eyes  

Eyes where you dwell, when it began

You were always there in my eyes

But never knew of thee being there

 

You were always there in my eyes

Be it when I sleep or awake

Be it a light of day or dark night

Glancing me through those black wide eyes

 

With a smile half in pain and joy

Hiding the deep set sorrows in you

You smiled for me to end my demise

You smiled for me to wing my dreams

 

Yet I could not contain you there

For I was selfish and brutal in love

I never knew the true meaning of love

For I thought love to be chaining thyself

 

 

The soreness rise in the corner of eyes

Mixing of salt with the wetness there

Felt the tears on my cheek and then chin

I started to cry in a silent pain

 

Tears magically cures the pain

Tears wipe out the stains on mind

I never knew it until I cried

When I cried, I fathomed the truth

 

The whites of my eyes turned into red

The hazy vision now gaining correct

Can see the horizon in ocher finish

Can see the seagull high flying for nest

 

Now I am looking through thy eyes

Deep black eyes those shines through tears

The sparkly wide eyes that belong to thee

Forever there I feel pain and tears…

Very emotional piece. I loved it. It even made my eyes water a little when this part came up :

'The soreness rise in the corner of eyes
Mixing of salt with the wetness there
Felt the tears on my cheek and then chin
I started to cry in a silent pain'

Tears lead us to accept and release pain. Each of us find our place to decide what we need and want. Thank you for sharing the excellent poem.

thanks. its a real encouragement... thank u.
Beautiful writing, describes emotions very well. The rhymes and flow were respectable. This is a great poem I can't really relate to, but it's easy to connect to... I couldn't imagine the regret I would truly feel if I had made different choices. Great contribution!

Another heart-touching rendition from you. I liked a lot.
So many make the mistake of rejecting a good woman who could make their life only to regret later.
Reference to salty tears are coming a little frequently. Can we replace them with other things to show how deeply the pain is felt?
But it did not ake anything from the work...which is so good, DN
