Dear

DEAR ! Once you won my heart ! and walked away merciless. Dear ! Won’t you repent ? How could you forget or how could I accept barren life. 11/13/22 A New Haiku - Footle - Tanka Contest by Brian Strand

This is heart-rending Anisha. There is a song, 'Only Love can Break a Heart' by Gene Pitney, though the words didn't exactly go together with the broken heart I had experienced, because it really was not simply love relationship-oriented, the lines of "Only love can break a heart, only love can mend it again..." could I truly relate to from that song, those words became true for me totally unexpectedly during a time in my life I felt nothing but a shattered heart. I've written a poem of that time in my life. When I hear Gene Pitney's song, I often think on that time, and the love and hope I found so unexpectedly caused me to actually have a future...one I wasn't planning on embracing and hope I never could have expected. Hugs and prayers for you Anisha. You have been in my prayers; I hope you will find healing and joy again.

Thanks for visit n to touch my feelings. I have not heard Gene Pitney's song . Actually I am not accustomed to listen English Songs. But I am a Bengalee. Tagor's songs are embedded in my heart to pacify n soothe. Tagore is such a Great Poet, Philosopher, There is no Human Feelings that have not been analysed by Tagore. Have Good Days. Blessings.
