HEAR WHAT I DON’T SAY
-NYLAZZIR-
SEP 10, 2012
The world has fallen on me today
Some fated time, one fateful day
The bitter taste and twinge of nay
Which pain it bore I dare not say
You passed by me and looked my way
And asked me then if I’m okay
I am alright - I guess - I’ll be
You never tried to look through me
I stretch my lips into a grin
While in my throat a lump of pain
The hollow sound of laugh I fend
Ease not the tightening in my chest
My face, devoid of anything
My voice, bereft of usual glint
A different story, my eyes did tell
If only you hear what I didn’t say.
