Beads of Solace.

By Shashwat Thakur

I gave my thread of love to you

But you sold it to someone else.

You took my thread of everything

And made a loop of nothingness.

You tried to shun my perception

And pushed me towards loneliness.

You left me to decipher the pain

And wanted me to resort to begging

But I still had it all and I didn't fall

Into the ditch of disillusionment!

My thread is not a reed in the wind;

It was you who failed to clear your debt.

My thread of love has not lost yet-

I have more beads of solace to string!
