Why me?

a poem by Madhura Dabholkar

The warm sunrays fill up my room
I am pleased to see a new day
I thank god for all I have
and try to smile as I start my day.

Each day I count and wait
for him to come and take
me along with him
I constantly look at his way.

Days passed by and so has weeks
I just wait and cry for him
neither he comes nor any message
my eyes turned dry and very weak.

Time stands still and so is my life
I can see my dreams fade away
going far away from me
my eyes see but can’t stop them
I wish to have a peaceful life.

Lord embrace me with your love
and show me some ray of hope
my love has turned sour
Lord help me with life to cope.

My dreams have shattered
so is my life
I loved him so much
still he deceived me
he ruptured my trust
and he hurt me
but why God! Why me?
