A grain of sand


















A man sinks himself in a woman’s esteem
When he bothers her with his love in haste,
An ordinary woman though she’s been,
And she gains a great strength to dismiss him.

This privilege does not belong to her.
She has got this privilege granted by him
From his weakness for her love and figure.
It took much toll for him to understand.

When she kicked him out, ignoring his helps,
He felt his male ego maimed ruthlessly.
He dropped his claim on her and left for his wife.
Binodini was a grain of sand in all eyes.
