A Word...

With a word to say,

I entered that fastened gate.

None to take up the strife,

Numb we stood.

Not a word from you,

Anesthetized me.

The word I so wanted to voice,

Dissolved inside my stunned mind.

Blank I stood,

So were you in no better sagacity.

It was as if a lifetime passed,

Those always together had no smile, no remark.

The sentiments we bore,

Had not a single vent.

Jammed within were some lucid feelings,

That left us trembled to the core.

All we had to think was,

How couldn’t thee get my silence,

Alas! Why could I not break my silence?

Time had brought those so close to a distance so great,

None could bridge the gap amidst.

With a word to say I came to thee,

Thou made me realize thy dissolution from my life so evident and so defined.

The word that I forever bore in my heart still torments me inside,

I wish without having said you could understand my silence,

My smile, my tears and my stride.
