unsaid
''Unsaid ''
At the long distance
And far high above and below
In the upper layers
Of the horizon
In between
Stars and clouds
Wrapping
all the empty space
of my corner less heart
All the unsaid
Frozen into an ice
Black and hard
Floating in the ocean
Of pain
More than half
Less than fully
Like the moon
Illuminating gibbous
A bun in the oven
Threatening to deliver
Lightening and thunder
Warns of a flash flood
In the desert of
Wordless world
A balloon
Without air
Inflated to its extreme
No one to care
None lays
an ear
Among the multitudes
A true orphan
Out of phrase
Out of expression
Suddenly it bursts like a cloud
Your hands are full
You catch drops of tears
In the form of rain .
