SNIGDHA AGRAWAL

Abstract

I LOVE YOU

I LOVE YOU

1 min

Those three words

were never said

I don't know why

Was it because words

paled in front of actions?

A tender touch 

On the forehead 

A hand held over the head

Showering blessings 

Promise of protection

Their way of conveying

words nonvocal 

And they were not alone

in this vocal charade

Can't recall having mouthed

those three words myself

But touching their feet

daily, before leaving for work 

meant what was not said

Applying moisturizer on her back

Giving him a shoulder rub

Didn't it say all that 

remained unsaid?

Perhaps those words

were insignificant in

the love we exchanged

"I Love you" 

Ma, Baba

Hear it from afar

Till I meet you beyond

the horizon and say

it up to your face
