Feel like talking to you all the time,
But never ventured out-
Knowing that you have got no tree trunk by your side to lean on;
Who will bear the burden?
I?
I have been a strange man-weird, vagrant...
How many women can put up with the agonies
Of being a true paramour?
If I flee from you
You will be dumbed, for sure...
And for certain the drops of rain will drip
From your lotus eyes...
You need a strong trunk of a tree-a strong trunk...
To act as a true saviour...
Someone who could just extend the glass of cold water
With a mighty heart...
With a heart of a saint, perhaps...
But is there any tree like that, really, dear?
A tree who could wrap you up in the wet, monsoon nights
With warm coverings of sleep and dreams?
Is there any tree trunk like that?
So...
I keep concealed
All that are clandestine...
All that I wish to share...
A kind of perennial wish staying concealed forever!
