Poem - Silent plea of a tormented heart

Inspired by Kitty, I tried to revive my rusted poetic skills. Here is what I came up with to reflect Milind's thoughts.

Silent plea of a tormented heart

I know not when you entered my heart

I know not why you did

All I know is you invade my senses

Though to you I can't be candid

I try to bridle my feelings in a leash

But alas they always break free

Leaving me confused and unsatisfied

Till your beautiful countenance I see

I wonder if there is a bond between us

That dates back to our previous birth

When you and I could have been lovers

Rejoicing in each other's mirth

Although I'm dying to reveal my love

To you whenever we're alone

Thoughts of your lover and of mine

Turn me into a stone

I struggle with my conscience every day

Wondering what's wrong and what's right

All I know is that for you my love

Even death I'm prepared to fight

I cannot stand to see tears in your eyes

Nor remain quiet when you're abused

I'll fight all forces which give you pain

Although why, I'm still confused

I wake up each day with hope in my heart

That you may someday reciprocate

My love for you in the same measure

And free me from this present state

I want to unite with you, body and soul

And bind you in a scorching kiss

Forgetting the harshness of reality

I want to live with you in eternal bliss

So will you come to me, my darling?

Can you hear my silent plea?

For you I thirst every living moment

From my misery please free me.

Please leave your comments.

OMG OMG this is mindblowing.Opti dear,a very nice poem honey. 👏 👏 👏 You have very aptly portrayed Milsi' emotions.Loved these 2 stanzas particularly

Although I'm dying to reveal my love

To you whenever we're alone

Thoughts of your lover and of mine

Turn me into a stone

So will you come to me, my darling?

Can you hear my silent plea?

For you I thirst every living moment

From my misery please free me.

Fantabulous darling. 👏 👏

Awww...really beautiful poem...I like the title "Silent plea of a tormented heart"

Like the way you portrayed the way he is struggling with his feelings...

Thanks opti 😊

Wow - you just gave me a complex.... 😆, and here I wanted to pen one from PRachi's side 😆

👏 👏 opti you have sooo aptly and beautifully described milind's feelings ,i could actually feel for milind through your words 😭 ,please do pen more ,it was a pleasure reading them 😊

Thanks Madhu, Heebs, Kitty and Saju for those encouraging words. Kitty, dont you dare get a complex. Your poem was beautiful and infact inpired me to pen this. I used to write poems when I was in school which was ages ago. I am so out of practice in all these years I was a little embarassed to post this. But I guess Michi prompts one to do a lot of things which one would otherwise think twice about doing!

Opti hun you've reminded me of Shelley ah such a lovely poetic venture mirroring Milsi's thirst, yearning and pain. I'm so touched dear we should compile a book "Michi piece by piece" then we can put together all our compilations our ffs, short stories, poems everything I bet it'll be a number one seller.

awwwwww wow,wonderful,awesome and simple beautiful 👏and if u are thinking about doing more then I say please do it because I love this one thanks😊

Thanks Fatima. I'll definitely keep your words in mind, although I'm not sure whether I may really write more. Maybe I'll have to take longer showers since this one was born during one! Shabbo's shower scene helped!

Muneeza, you are being too kind, likening me to a great poet like Shelley. I'm flattered, to say the least. Thanks dear.

👏 Opti, you are tooo good, aptly conveyed Milind's feelings/state of confusion, battle between his feelings and conscious.

So many poets in the forum :)
