Analysis of Hero
Every woman has a secret hero
Whom she does hero worship,
He is the one from whom she wants
Something more than friendship
He is the one she looks up to
For advice and worldly wisdom
And save her from the bad world
To make queen of his kingdom
He is a thorough gentleman
Who respects womankind
He is polite and considerate,
Simple, benevolent and kind
He is a go-getter
Nothing is impossible for him
Can change the wind direction
Can turn people in favor of him
He keeps his promises
Won’t ever deceive her
He’ll stand by her in adversity
And never ever leave her
He is her prince charming,
Her world and everything,
He is the one for whom
She is ready to do everything
It’s not the looks, appeal or the status
That makes hero of a man
It’s all these plus something else
Which is the secret of a woman
There is no perfect man to befit
Woman’s expectation of a hero
And it usually remains a fantasy
For a woman to find her hero
I was fortunate to meet my hero
True became the dream of my life
Even though I suffered many mishaps
And that too at a young stage of life
He became the SUN of my sky
*And star on my forehead
**Moon rose for him to break my fast
To take my life ahead
I wanted to show him my appreciation
That he was the best man in my eyes
Wanted to give him an award
To show that he was above all skies
But the cruel unseen forces
Snatched my hero from me
That doesn’t deter my hero worship
He will always be hero for me
* Hindu married women put bindi on their forehead.
** This is a hindu ritual known as Karvachauth where women fast for their husband and break the fast after moonrise (which is late on that particular day)
