Gazing at the dark cloudy sky
She wondered why is she changing
She wondered where is her mistake
She wondered where is she lacking
She wondered where did she miss
She wondered why is she lost
She wondered why is she not happy
She wondered why is she not contended
the heart pondered
the mind became numb
the sienna eyes spoke
the eyes spoke the language of silence
the language of fear
the language of pain
and the tears rolled down
She knows the reason
within the heart
She knows the story
of each drop of her tears
She knows that she can’t express
She knows she has to keep within
She knows she has to suppress
and the sienna eyes burnt again
with deep pain and longing
they shut themselves with an overflow
hiding all the emotions inside
and giving her the strength to survive
and a hope of happiness
with a promise of faithfulness
