The End Poem by Unnikrishnan Sivasankara Menon

The End

Rating: 5.0


End

When
A man
Fails
To forget
And forgive,
It is the end
Of his roads.

But when
A society
Fails
To forgive
And forget
And move on,
It is
The End
Of His world.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
It is oft-repeated cliche, ‘God is love'. The very message of Christmas is Love. Every religion preaches love. God is there, where Love is. If Love can not prevail upon your hatred, it harms you, as an individual. But, if a Society, a nation thrives on hatred, God fails. It is the end of His World.

Individual and social responsibility, taking charge of ones mistakes, not bearing persistent grudges and hatred. And the space of caring inbetween 5/5, reflective to the point!

Very perceptive and accurate. There should be no room in a persons heart for hatred and society fails if it promotes hatred.

Yes! This is exactly what I had in my mind. And more, if a society fails, a nation fails and if a nation fails, the entire world follows.

Exactly, Aarzoo. The world is made a livable space only because people tend to forget fast. And forgive. Forgiveness is the most valuable virtue. That saves the forgiver too from a heartbreak.
