Her Resolve Comments

Ripples of pain weave circles round her
Memories sad and stark crucify her
At night she encounters mindless phantoms
Vampires who come to suck her blood

Females in our part of the world have been subjected to abuse and injustice since ages. Situation has improved a lot after the doors of education were opened for them, gradually albeit. In a male dominant society, they still have to walk a long way to be at par. The poem, though starts with a heart wrenching description, ends on in an inspiring tone. The last two stanzas are very inspiring, as are the 'Poet's Notes' too.

In a quickly darkening world She looks for a candle flame To make her ashen heart once more aflame When torn with the whiplash of life She longs for a balm to kiss away The sting of her reeking wounds

A very strong and expressive text, stemming from the spirit of modern human being, especially for a lonely woman who suffers internally and externally, who has no outlet except for writing poetry and depicting the circumstances of the painful reality in an excellent poem.. Wonderful poetry deserves 10 and onto my favorite list..well done

Ripples of pain weave circles round her Memories sad and stark crucify her At night she encounters mindless phantoms Vampires who come to her blood And tear her flesh

From the throes of guilt and sin She resolves to walk into the calm Into the serenity of a day's end Never to be thrown and trampled Under the hooves of raging beasts Not to be a toy fit for heartless rogues......this concluding Stanza is so moving. A brilliant poem on woman is amazingly shared here. Visited time and again.

wow, valsa. i relate to the " seeks, " " looks, " 'resolves" to flee from pain and distress. i've had to remind myself often that the ugliness of the world, including that in myself, is not nearly the whole story. there is beauty also, always beauty. and so, may you walk in beauty—before, behind, and below you. -glen

It's really a cruel world a helpless woman has to encounter for a safe and decent life. Her struggle for a candle light in the dark world is pathetic. Talented Valsa George is successful in bringing out the pathos...10

You are right my Parameswaran ji. This world, unfortunately is proving more cruel for women than before! Women have to empower themselves to withstand the exploits of men! Thank you dear friend!

Innocent women, often fall into a trap. Some fail to rise from the fall but there are determined women today, who with their sheer will power extricate themselves from various kinds of abuses and traumas.. I salute these women who rise up with sheer guts.

By sheer determination the woman comes from nightmares to the serenity of a day- - - - Innocent women falling victims to rogues live life of, guilt wridden and shameful throughout their life with no fault of theirs.In your poem the woman shows the resolve to come out of nightmares.

Women are lured by false promises and they unwittingly fall into traps set by men! Only with courage and determination, they can safeguard themselves! Thank you Bharati for your gracious comment!

Valsa, this is a magnificent, carefully controlled verse. Your use of language is remarkable. You build from a tense, claustrophobic mood and end on a note of terrific....release. This goes to myfavourites.

It is no easy to live a life of a woman where thorns are at every nook and corner, seldom they find place to live in peace with self and soul. A thought provoking poem. My pick of lines from your poem: From the throes of guilt and sin She resolves to walk into the calm Into the serenity of a day's end.........

The anatomy and psychology of pain, beautifully set in poetic lines. I especially liked ' From the throes of guilt and sin She resolves to walk into the calm...' Lovely.

A poignant piece of poetry that presents a specific case that represents several such cases happening in many different parts of the world that go on unnoticed! However, I notice a great vestige in the lady’s judgment after realizing things, ‘She resolves to walk into the calm into the serenity of a day's end’. I was arrested by your each word that you have expressed…..wonderful choice of diction! A great poem on social issue!

Yes Dillip, this is an issue that needs to be addressed by all thinking individuals! Even after years of fight for gender equality, it is sad that things haven't changed much, but growing worse everyday! Thanks for your great comment!
