fate has deemed some paths to part,
Leaving men with a broken heart.

So here few men stand,
with nothing left,
But pain and sorrow, aching chest.
Their world has died, with their love,
remains a broken heart, forever lost.

-  Akshayaa

" See who is there finally " , a painful laughter echoed.

" Rajakumaran "

" Nandini , nandini..." , the voice cried as the glass of bitter liquid slipped off his hand as he stumbled under its grasping effect , " Nandini , please take me away from this death's clutches...for being its prey , I will be your prey my entire life I promise. Take away your Karikalan from this hell , he needs you Nandini...he needs you".
