Matters of the Heart

Moonmoon Chowdhury posted under PenMuse-43 Poetry on 2022-07-20



I glided on silken moments, That sang in your presence, Surrendering to ecstasy. I yearned to lay bare, The yarns of tenderness, With paeans devoted to you. I gauged your eagerness, But the light of your visage, Remained muted, unmoved. My helpless pillow, Swallowed the secret tears, cause you never bothered to see. Yet, I couldn’t wring out, The obstinate inclination, That filled my being to the brim. Perhaps, it was my destiny, To endure the sting of love, And sigh in vain endlessly.   Penmancy gets a small share of every purchase you make through these links, and every little helps us continue bringing you the reads you love!
