The White Angel…..
i’m really sorry about this but one of the comments made me think that i didn’t make the poem clear enuf…… so i’m posting it again…… the poem is not about a girl… or any “friend”… its simply about… addiction to cigarette…and i’ve just personified it.. trying to convey how it hurts as well as helps….{although I in no way encourage smoking!!….}
The devil in disguise
Or maybe Godsend
But, she is what I have
My new best friend
She weakens my shell
She helps me to cry
She burns herself
But never asks me why?
As I draw her closer
My worries seem to cease
I close my eyes and relax
As she flows through me
I kiss her soft lips
I feel her warmth
The fire in body
Cools me down
Her kiss burns my lips
Her breath hurts my soul
But she does for a moment
Block the gaping hole
White like an angel
Heart, dark and dry
She helps me control
She gives me a high
But like all those
Who for me are dear and close
She exhausts herself
And burns to ashes
Like all my friends
She regrets being there,
and realises later….
That the flame on the wrong end of my cigarette
Is far greater….

Hey I guess the poem was clear in itself, i could not understand it first time, there are so many types of poems posted here and many of them hint at there themes but their actual meaning remains elusive, so I overlooked the connection you had made throughout with a cigarette…now after having understood it this looks so good ![]()
very well written
Apoorv, what a wonderful poem…and thanks for the calrification note in the beginning of the poem, for without it, the meaning would have changed drastically!
