The fact that Radhika is still not sharing her thoughts with Dev has been in my mind for some time. She is probably behaving this way because she has never relied on others for help, has done everything on her own and had to depend on herself for her survival. So she does not know how to share her feelings. Although she knows that Dev is always there for her and will help her, but in front of her mayka and amma, her insecurites come out and she again goes back into her shell. I hope she lets go of this tight control that she has on her heart and lets Dev see the real Rad with warts and all.........otherwise she will loose everything. Here is a poem that I wrote today thinking about Radhikas predicament. Hope you all will enjoy it............the bird is Radhika and hands, Dev.
Bird
The bird with broken wings lies on the ground
Calling out to strangers to hear her sound
To heal her and make her whole again
But alas she lies without gain
Lying quietly she cries out in pain
Waiting for others to hear her strain
When she realises that no one will come along
She sings herself a melancholic song
Singing to herself she looks in vain
For a friendly face who will hear her refrain
To hold her and keep her from falling
When she tries her luck in flying
At last she found a helping hand
That showed her life was like sand
The more you hold it tight, the more you loose
Slacken the grip so that life doesn't diffuse
