MADE FOR EACH OTHER
Poem by DPN


While struggling between the jaws of law for divorce
And gasping to hold on the dying honor
The palace of faith and fidelity you built
Has collapsed like a castle of cards in storm
Made for each other you once made a heaven on earth
Like a colorful feather she floated and landed on the tight strings
To play melodies unheard unto that day
By the magic of which you rose to heavenly heights
Where she disappeared into the galaxy like a shooting star
You remained a shepherd who lost his sheep in the dense forest
Your vows of commitments turned meaningless
Your passion for each other turned hypocritical
The single heart with which you lived hitherto
Though divided now has no pain nor bleeding
Let not the hearts of your kids be divided like earthly possessions
Let not high walls be built in their minds for you to hide behind

The poem gives us a clear picture of the value of relationships and why wife and husband relation should be nurtured properly. Since its not only affects them but also the small beautiful mind which is destined for heights. A CLASSIC ONE...THUMBS UP

The union of a man and woman has the purpose of rearing another generation and the upkeep of it. A healthy relation only can accomplish it

The closure lines are great advice that must be put to mind and heart. A well expressed poem.

A great and vivid depiction of a dissolution of marriage and its effects on both parties and children. Deeply touching, poignant and meaningful write.

Heart touching poem! A sad portrait of a genial good soul. Poet interlaces passion with reasoning. Free verse contributes to the theme of the poem.

Thank you Leela Kumari. We often see love ending in marriage and after a short period divorce too.In my opinion it was not a sincere love but an apology to it, a hypocrisy

A man and woman fall in love, marry and start living a romantic married life. The whole word look at them with envy and tend to say made for each other'.But when life goes on and hard realities are faced either of them is dissatisfied, breaks the shackles of marriage bond and goes away. The other is destined to live a life of sorrow and disappointment.From time immemorial poets draw this picture and DPN also does it. But Still presented differently and the poet deserves credit.

The poem portrays the society's steady inclination towards divorces. Even if the couples have exchanged great vows before the wedding, these will be destroyed when they begin their real lives..it is the harsh reality of life.
