Unforgotten Love

The whole society was against me
Because she was in love with me

She had to bear much pain because of me

Her relatives were pouring anger on me

She was rich but I was poor

She was from higher caste but I was from lower

Her parents were mad in much anger

My parents were always very somber

Many a time I got threat; on the road, in the house and on the street

They told me this mistake not to repeat

Every time I suffered a rapid heartbeat

My letters were opened and crushed under their feet

My heart was dreaming about her

The very time my father told me to forget her

I was silent and also my mother

From my eyes were trickling down warm tear

One by one the letters were torn and put on fire

I was screaming and crying with much ire

I was going to lose all my desire

They were giggling and creating  satire

I stopped eating for days

I lost each and every hope's rays

I had lost all my courage

I was tied and put into the cage

The cage made my life sorrowful

This was a jail which was painful

She was sent to Liverpool

She was far away but not forgetful

My imprisonment ended; I came out

My parents were forced to leave the village out

An old man gave me their whereabouts 

With much difficulties I found them out

My mother was cooking on the road side  

My father was suffering typhoid 

Seeing them in such condition I cried

Till the time she had become someone’s bride
