Unexpressed Love

Ehsan Sehgal began his literary career in 1967. His first publication was a novel, but his consequent books were…






It is my ego
It is my status
It is my shyness
Or it is that
I am a senior
Whatever it is
It causes the burden
Upon thoughts and feelings
Since I love someone
But I cannot express that
Whereas,
Life stays in a journey of hopes,
Dreams, and imaginations,
Knowing nothing
What would be a result
Of that love,
Which remained unexpressed?
