They call me cruel and cold
But all wicked things start from the innocence
After the hell...that I lived in for years...all alone
I fell in love with you
I was a queen living in the world of monsters
You were just a prince living in a dreamy world of yours
I decided to **** those...who wanted you dead
All your enemies...obstacles...were mine
But...despite that...you decided to **** me in the end...
Because...you were in love with the princess...her voice...her beauty...her everything
I could be her...but your eyes were perfectly blind to see my beauty
Being kind to animals and sing for them was not that of a big deal..
But I asked myself  what kind of love it was...?
if you wanted me to change...
I realized I couldn't sacrifice myself for your happily ever after
I am not a princess...you could find wandering in your kingdom's jungle
I am a queen....ruling her kingdom
So...how dare you...decide to **** me...
to please your princess...to mark my death as a symbol of your bravery?
I got it.... I am a Queen...I deserved a King
Not a mere prince
And after living in hell for years
Dear, believe me...I am use to the beautiful screams
So I couldn't care more...and I killed you and your princess...
Remember...I was always a Queen...it was you who said me evil...
'The Evil Queen'...well...it flatters me!
But...when centuries will pass...they will narrate our tale...
They would **** me in the end...as you wanted...
And you'll be the brave prince!
And this was all because...
I couldn't sacrifice myself for your happily ever after...
It's just my opinion...that the evil queen is not always evil...
These verses are just sayings of an evil queen to the prince she tried to love...did everything for him...but he was not mature enough to understand...and loved the princess. He was in love with the outer beauty...and never saw the inner beauty...
I think judging someone by their words is not a good idea...waiting and trying to know them...can help us know them more...
Sometimes someone really needs our help...but they just don't know how to approach.

Hidden behind the pain
Are memories etched in sand.
They're washed away by the waves,
I'm left to wonder where we stand.

Hidden behind the smile
Are demons lurking in the dark.
They whisper secrets I shouldn't know,
Framing them like pieces of art.

Hidden behind the facade of love
Is a bruised but beating heart.
I wonder how long it will remain this way,
Before succumbing to its scars...

Even black has a shade of blue,
when I see it from your point of view.
Your love has the power to change every wrong to right.
With you by my side, these hollow and dead night turn's into a beautiful twilight.
Your laughter is an assurance that everything is fine, it'll be alright,
hope is everywhere so is the lingering light.
Your eyes are like sacred raining of starlight,
like the drifts of leaves, immovable and bright,
filling the world as fair as white.
Your talk is so magical it feels so right,
I just want to listen as you talk in the spotlight.
When you look in my direction,
I feel a connection, it makes me want to grow into your definition of perfection.
Still undecided on the title part.
This poem is dedicated to the reflection I see every time I pass by my mirror.
Even when there is chaos in world and life feels ****** up, one self talk sessions with myself in the mirror and I fall in love with myself again. So I wanna thank me for nurturing the beautiful soul that I am becoming.
उसके दु:साहस के समक्ष गन्धर्व यक्ष भी मांगे पानी,
मर्यादा सब धूल धूसरित ऐसा था दम्भी अभिमानी ?
संधि वार्ता के प्रति उत्तर  में कैसा वो सन्देश दिया ?
दे डाल कृष्ण को कारागृह में उसने ये आदेश किया।

प्रभु राम की पत्नी  का  जिसने मनमानी  हरण किया,
उस अज्ञानी साथ राम ने प्रथम शांति का वरण किया।
ज्ञात  उन्हें  था  अभिमानी को  मर्यादा का ज्ञान नहीं,
वध करना था न्याय युक्त बेहतर कोई इससे त्राण नहीं।

फिर भी मर्यादा प्रभु राम ने एक अवसर प्रदान किया,
रण  तो होने को ही था पर अंतिम  एक निदान दिया।
रावण भी दुर्योधन तुल्य हीं निरा मूर्ख था अभिमानी,
पर मर्यादा पुरुष राम थे निज के प्रज्ञा की हीं मानी।

था विदित राम को कि रण में भाग्य मनुज का सोता है,
नर  जो  भी लड़ते कटते है अम्बर शोणित भर रोता है।
इसी हेतु तो प्रभु राम ने अंतिम एक प्रयास किया,
सन्धि में था संशय किंतु किंचित एक कयास किया।

दूत बना के भेजा किस को रावण सम जो बलशाली,
वानर श्रेष्ठ वो अंगद जिसका पिता रहा वानर बालि।
महावानर बालि जिसकी क़दमों में रावण रहता था,
अंगद के पलने में जाने नित क्रीड़ा कर फलता था।

उसी बालि के पुत्र दूत बली अंगद को ये काम दिया,
पैर डिगा ना पाया रावण  क्या अद्भुत पैगाम दिया।
दूत  बली अंगद हो  जिसका सोचो राजा क्या होगा,
पैर दूत का हिलता ना रावण रण में फिर क्या होगा?

रामायण में जिक्र आता है कि रावण के साथ युद्ध शुरू होने से पहले प्रभु श्रीराम ने उसके पास अपना दूत भेजा ताकि शांति स्थापित हो सके। प्रभु श्री राम ने ऐसा इसलिए किया क्योंकि उन्हें ज्ञात था कि युद्ध विध्वंश हीं लाता है । वो जान रहे थे कि युद्ध में अनगिनत मानवों , वानरों , राक्षसों की जान जाने वाली थी । इसीलिए रावण के क्रूर और अहंकारी प्रवृत्ति के बारे में जानते हुए भी उन्होंने सर्वप्रथम शांति का प्रयास किया क्योंकि युद्ध हमेशा हीं अंतिम पर्याय होता है। शत्रु पक्ष पे मनोवैज्ञानिक दबाव बनाने के लिए अक्सर एक मजबूत व्यक्तित्व को हीं दूत के रूप में भेजा जाता रहा है। प्रभु श्रीराम ने भी ऐसा हीं किया, दूत के रूप में भेजा भी तो किसको बालि के पुत्र अंगद को। ये वो ही बालि था जिसकी काँख में रावण 6 महीने तक रहा।  कहने का तात्पर्य ये है कि शांति का प्रस्ताव लेकर कौन जाता है, ये बड़ा महत्वपूर्ण हो जाता है। प्रस्तुत है दीर्घ कविता  "दुर्योधन कब मिट पाया" का तृतीय  भाग।
