Sometimes, the person who cannot save us from our pain can still teach us how to stop hurting ourselves! A well-hidden healing message in it!!

Well-written lines, Nibedita.

And sometimes the student is very difficult.

Thank you, Madhuri. ❤️❤️

The artist who lives within my heart,

She who lives within my heart—

What is she called?—

She, the lover, who lives within my heart—

If I am not even worthy

Of uttering the word 'love',

Then please, somehow, forgive me—

Forgive me.

Oh, damn it!

The words just keep

Clumping together in my throat.

What was I saying?

The artist who lives within my heart

The lover who lives within my heart,

She says, “I will paint your portrait;

I will paint you with a brush, with my fingers.

My fingers will brush against yours.

My fingers will touch your eyelashes,

Your lips, your cheeks, your throat, your chest, your feet;

These fingers will touch every part of you.

I will paint, I will paint, I will go on painting—

Once, again, again and again.”

Oh! I don’t even know how to paint!

Whatever I will draw,

Will make even you cry.

Oh dear, what are you doing?

Laughing, are you?

Nice expression; this beautifully captures all the emotional desires during indulging in creativity.

Thank you so much, Madhuri
