The Wonder Girl

By Kapil Khanna

THE WONDER GIRL

The girl I knew once

Timid fearful and shy

Wanting to fly in the sky

High up above very high..

She seeked two wings,

Strong enough to hold

So strong so bold

Her world which can hold..

Wounded by life she lived

Daily chores and be kicked

Thrown into the darkness

Where her ghosts scratched her every bit.

She had tears and saw no hope

Slipped and Went into oblivion wanting to elope Walking slow and treading unknown Seeking the hand of known..

When she kneeled in the darkness and cried.. Came a spider hanging there upside

Said to her to not be broke

You can cling to single hope.

One will come with glittering aura

Make and fill her world with fragrant flora Will tear apart her ghosts who haunted

Will fulfill all her wishes desires she ever wanted..

She started to walk again

But was full to the brim

When one message came from him

Unknown unheard who had never been..

Hi Miss he Said

Called that minute as she wept

Strong hand he extended

Glittering world he always offended..

Thorough learnt and known

Never ever he had shown

His grit anger and guile

Both were attracted from Miles..

He hold her hand she hold his heart

Both cleared The wounds that made them apart They talked chatted and loved most

Came closer and understood more..

Blessed by the lord himself..

They have started the path that dread Inching to the freedom of souls

Away from the world of ghouls..

They will win in the end.

That's the story which began

Full of fears and defeats

Will be written as history..

Like the Falcon we will fly,

Up above the blue sky,

Out of sight and out of reach

Where no hypocrites would preach..

We will love abound

Smile laugh and play around

In a small world of paradise

Made by beads of surprises..

We will tread around

Make love on water sand and every ground Looking like eyes of dove

We will recite poems of love..
