She was somber always…
She tried to smile
Though the smile had no warmth
Which only aided in highlighting her gloom…
Why should she be sad?
Nice husband
Smart kids
Good job
Beautiful house too…
Yet, her prayers were earnest and sad
Demanding to be answered at once
Is it lost past she is worrying
Or the future burdens she has to bear
Or the hidden cries from present?
I couldn’t fathom…
Only thing I can see is –
She is sad
And she tries to cover it…
Covering with a smile
Which is as frail as ice in water
Which may dissolve at any moment…
Exposing her self…
In my prayers I added –
“God!! Give her what she wants…
If its not her fate to get it.
At least give her a good mask
Of pretty, beautiful smile…
With which she can live…”
