Teddy Bear
Whenever you need me, I am always there.
Ohh! My dear, ohh! My dear;
I am your teddy bear.
Whenever you want to cry;
so tightly- you hug me.
You don’t feel any shy;
Because you say we are best buddies.
You say you need me;
I know you need me.
I need you too;
But, I can’t tell you.
You come and share everything;
Whenever you feel high or low,
And even when you feel nothing;
You come, you say, you go.
Sometimes you ignore me;
For some reasons- I don’t know.
Sometimes you throw me;
For some reasons- I don’t know.
I know that I don’t like it;
-feeling ignored and worthless,
Waiting
Waiting
Waiting
Waiting.

Another good one.. you have animated a lifless teddy through you writing, I really like the way you have depicted the feelings of the teddy...
One thing is not clear "Because you see yourself inside me" what does this mean?
I mean a child does consider his teddy bear his friend but doesnt see himself inside the teddy?
thx tarun for the comments.
actually, this poem is on relationships.
cheers!
thanks alot tarun.
the line "Because you see yourself inside me" has been changed to
"Because you say we are best buddies. "
so, now the poem can be perceived in two ways. once again, thx tarun.
Reading the poem makes me recollect all those people who have been my friend yet I 'teddy'd them. On last count, I could find 2 such people. I guess its high time I apologized to them.
I felt as much on one side as the another......
Hmm..As a poet i wud wanted to have some ending in words,though not full in meanings..
I mean smth like this at the end..
How could you just not care?
And leave behind your Teddy Bear??
I know what your poem means btw..;)
Neo
thx naresh,
may be bcoz of 2 reasons last lines were not there:-
1) teddy bear may not want to make things so obvious by asking.
2)why to end things? let it be like this. -uncertain, ambiguous.
man.... u r awsome.....
i'm ur fan.... :)
