Fatal Error

a poem by Rinu M Varghese

Mistake it was only my own
for ignorant into this world I was born

Gambled I had with my heart
knowing well that I’d be hurt

Come across I’d many a trouble
none as intense as this burst bubble

Pain that welled up in my eye
never thought of saying Bye

The walls of my poor heart in pain
yell it all out in vain

And as the wind my cheeks kiss
I’ve none, just you to miss

And the flame within my heart can now the truth say
Never again for someone to tread shall I my heart lay…
