He.
His happiness was like water drops
sprinkled on a leaf blade,
would later slide down with the sound of each drop
resembling rumbles man made.
I was molested...
she finally wrote these words
in an old weary diary, tired.
...at a tender age of seven,
I was,
Tears rolled down and she scribbled again,
this old woman suffered, approaching her death.
I work as a nurse in this quite hospital
and two months ago, I was given the job to take care
of her, The silent and reserved old lady never spoke to me.
but when two men I guess older than her
paid a visit, she somehow seemed happy rather satisfied.
after they had left, she began writing and I became
curious.
she wrote further...
by a pair of two teenage brothers, twins.
I never knew what had happened to me was so
critical. I thought they just played with me.
I grew up and before soon I realised it was wrong and punishable.
I...I kept quite.
I pretended to live a normal life
with a wretched heart.
the sad ones they say
but no matter what
I just couldn't stop thinking about it.
very soon I was a teenager too.
I developed new ways to  turn my misery into laughter.
They... were people we had known for a long-time
and they'd visit home at least three times a year or so
and when they would I saw guilt in their eyes.
Before I could even understand I fell in love with one of them.
I didn't tell just like they won't ask for forgiveness
or I was not so confident to confess.


O ye tears hanging up to her eyelashes
find way down and wash
pain from her beautiful heart
with the same purity of aught.


as she closed the diary she said wiping her tears;
sometimes, I feel like the floor
a quite muse to adore
how important
but forgotten.
sometimes, I feel like the sky
the highest of prides
however distant
but remembered in your heart.
no offence meant.
Withersoever must I care,
I'm not carried, I carry away,
said love to men
as it began brewing a deeper hue around.
From the shades of many written pasts
inscribed in the ragged scrolls,
some forgotten, some revered
we learn yet dare
to fall in love all over again.
I saw
the water rippled on the surface of a mirror
it appeared as if it was struggling
both were,
the water to stay,
...the mirror to let it stay...

*their only desire
to see each other
as much together,
as many reflections to capture.
I shall melt with the tears
of your gloomy eyes,
yet before they dry
remember me this one last time...
That who entice the bending tide
to ascend through the air, to slide
a flicker in the midst of dark,
oh! tender-hearted skylark
soar through golden paddy fields
spread the idylls I sing
I seldom yearn for happiness
that runs into thy blood be mine
hither, hither, my dear treasure
just watching you fly is my pleasure
so stay, as the time flutter by
your flight is the only memory I behold.
