An Evening Turned Awry - Page 2

This line is so beautiful, “Pale as pristine snow her face bereft of emotions,” because it reinforces that no matter what is done to us or what has been done to sully, break or malign a person — you can still be pure at heart & soul. You are not used goods or not valuable. This juxtaposition cements that we are not what others say we are but that we define ourselves, alone 😳

Aneri gives the feel of a fragile victim and every move of hers only reinforced the vulnerability. Like Anumapa i felt the urge to calm her down. The expression was very effectively expressed.

This soulful poem touches deeply inside. Imagine all the related scenes with muted dialog and fit this poem in Voice Over.... with a soul stringing low volume BG in the gap between VO ..... we will get the real impact of this DV menace...

Which of the siblings suffered more

Was hard to tell

Both needed a shoulder to lean, a heart that sensed and eased their pain

And that heart understands the pain of both as it underwent such a pain repeatedly for 26 years......

Woh.... Thank you so much absolutely humbled.
