Sankhajit Bhattacharjee Poem 19

TWICE

A boss assured a lady,

working under him in the office,

so she gave her self-respect.

The boss sowed a seed, fled away,

the seed was destroyed before its development into a seedling.

The innocent fool lost her self-respect.

The time has passed,

the story has almost faded.

The lady got back her self-respect-

another good man paid it:

her new life will surely make her happy.
