SECRECY

 


SECRECY

 

Anonymous love to exist in this world,

Pseudo, the address identity helped enables,

Not a criminal life from the underworld,

Famous is in his city, wealthy, wife, children,

Respected in society grew prosperous well,

Then have true name identity in an order established,

Head of the family, he dominates if questioned,

The family knows his sensitivity, honor quietly,

Children showered with his love, care, respect,

His wife, closer to his heart, knows to an extent,

Personal identity immense pain she marked,

The truth behind a sad past she never dare to,

Seen his loneliness, the pale face ashen,

Many a time, those surfaces prefer seclusion,

The bedroom with no picture except his mother,

He used to sit for hours, achieved a composed state,

Only his wife knows his mother is no more,

She passed away when he was young, a laborer,

He never discloses his mother's name, place,

How he grew up, where till arrived in this city,

A closely guarded secret where his place is ignorant,

His name identity, father and mother's names,

All manipulated long ago, not accepted known,

His only friend in this world, I know everything,

Promised prefer to be anonymous a writer here,

Confused watching similar cases, life ruined,

Perished in shame, shattered family so real,

Class, class-based society, gold differentiates,

The color, yellowish metal, emits poison,

Decimates have-not having wealth assets,

Possessions, prime factor, ensure power,

A breeding ground of ego subtly controlling heart,

It is the discrimination, devastating lives,

Life of young enacts love soaked the heart,

The elixir of the human heart far beyond a border,

No color, caste, or class, walled people,

Loves a man with woman eons continues,

Gets pregnant, the female deserves recognition,

Man and wife must be before the wedlock,

A child before sacred marriage, sanctity null,

Wall forcefully separates both a baby in roll,

Die? should it die? What for humans condemn?

Life invited only your culprit can't kill,

It is the Lord's grace sanctified union of heart n body,

No remorse, invite the soul to this world boldly,

My friend's mother, the courageous lady, didn't kill,

Gave birth to her child, her husband rich failed to marry,

This story of poor, ignominy inborn, hatred, unspoken,

Scorn their poverty condemn pregnancy,
Separated lived his mother, her neighbor sheltered,

He knew the sad events enrolled the child,

Declared as the father of the child, his mother's name,

The child of the past living today as an aristocrat,

His mother quit the world was young,

His heart protects the secrecy, loves his mother,

She saved her son and allowed him to grow long,

His secrecy never pitters out gratuitous a song.
