Drabble: I Shall Never Tell
I Shall Never Tell
Shravan
I shall never tell I know;
That you hate when you can’t control things,
whilst the paper bears your sombre scribbles.
That it bothers you,
when someone tags you cute and not empowering.
That you wish to scurry for once,
instead declare to hurdle.
That you think of giving in to the shackles that come with being resilient,
yet break them anyway.
That you want to lash out,
but instead choose to suppress in a fist.
That you want to cry your eyes out,
when all you could do is pat them dry.
That sometimes you would like to opt out of the brave,
and live a little.
That it breaks your heart,
to stand up with the right over wight.
That you elect to bask in the pain,
rather than watch others in.
But I know that these things make you YOU
You taught me to love.
But I shall never tell you that,
For I fear I may lose you.
***
Suman
I shall never tell;
That my life becomes chaotic with you,
yet brings peace in it.
That when I close my eyes to your presence,
the same pair scans for you in your striking absence.
That I feel privileged,
to have someone painting smiles on a rainy day.
That when you lovingly offer a place in your heart,
allotting a bigger one for me, my soul surrenders.
That I feel protected,
for you to have my back and stand with the right.
That I am comforted,
when you offer your shoulder to rest upon.
That I feel weak when I’m not around you.
That you can’t win over my heart,
cause it’s already been done a thousand.
You taught me to live.
But I shall never tell you that,
For I fear I may lose myself to you.

Wow Bucky this was super deep! I loved the parallel lines: For I fear I may lose you and For I fear I may lose myself to you. There is this irony of how they both need each other yet are afraid to admit it. You portrayed it beautifully! Amazing job!

Lovely poem. SuVan's feeling penned down beautifully. By the way Zindagi Gulzar hai is also one of my favourite serial.
