Baddy

By Manushree Mishra

I turned him with the shoulder,

I made him sit with me,

I told him it is okay,

Have no grudges against thee.

As it was his onus.

I saw stifling summers,

I watched wintry winters,

Sitting side by side -he looked at me,

'Now, bring the monsoon. ', he commanded.

As if he was Zeus.

When

He was done with his commission,

He kneeled down - looked in my eye,

And told me

'I have fallen for thee'..........

'But it is the time to adieu'.

He had seen 'Goody' approaching,

They were not allowed

Each other's crossing.

He left.

'Baddy' went away crying.

Now love pumps his heart.

…………………………………..

Baddy-bad phase of life.

Goody-good phase of life.
