55-Raped




I let my heart beat with the whishing leaves. The grass caressing my naked body and it’s somewhat comforting. I open my eyes and everything is red. I try to scream but the broken teeth suffocate me. A face in the moon appears. You carry me in your arms, and I close my eyes again.

    Poignant and beautiful. "Heart beating with the whishing leaves."
    Thanks for showing us the depth of what can be rendered with 55 words.

    I believe sorely in the beauty of your imagination. How you can widely shut your eyes to evoke the imagery then inhale deeply and start putting down the words carefully is great.


    This is a sincere and hearty wish, a wish for you to be the greatest of all, to achieve your dreams and to realize success in the most beautiful ways of all.

    Maha, reading your posts has always been a true boon, and a very gratifying pleasure :)

    Your poem has taken my breath
    away, the pain and vulnerability.

    That created a very intense feeling. One I can't describe but have felt at one point in my life.

    Amazing....You pursue so closely with such vivacity that i can feel my skin peeled off.

    You have a fine understanding of the emotional subtilities...as you always reveal through your writing the capacity to bring into light all these finer aspects.

    A lots of sparks thrown as you swing your hammer to forge your lines and their curves until they concord with what is inside.

    Keep it up..keep me amazed!!
    thankyou once again Maha!

    Col.
