Unspoken, Unasked, Undiscussed.
-Priyanka Jain
I started rehearsing again and again, I had to say it this time
I started rehearsing again and again, I had to say it this time
Anxiety was taking over all my
senses but I had to be strong
It was important, but not easy,
words can be such a slime
Emotions, secrets, confessions and
a list of rights & wrongs
On a freezing evening I looked
into those eyes, again curious
Innocent and dreamy, like a kid, waiting
for me to begin the story
The story was now told and the truth
was out, which was spurious
It wasn’t the truth rehearsed to
be told, actual truth now in gory
Night followed by chilly evening, I
was crying, hugging my bed
Struggling to breath between sobs
and trembling due to ache
Words from past were haunting me, truth
was causing a dread
A question I wanted to ask those
eyes, could have been soul’s slake
I promised another story the next
day, started rehearsing again
I had to say it this time because undiscussed
past was a sting
The story wasn’t long, just 5
words to express the cutting pain
Followed by a question, the delay was
causing a terrible swinge
