M

You love her,

But you don't confess.

You are impaired,

Yet you hold your tears.

You are insecure,

Which is clear from that messy mind.

You are irascible,

Yet you control it.

You start concealing;

Your hurricane inside you.

And slowly and steadily,

A monster starts prevailing beneath you.

Your blood boils at high temperature.

You are stressed at any tenure.

The pain which you felt,

Has been a chunk of life now;

And the tears which wanted to flow,

Had now decided to stay inside.

Silence....

Your monster loves this silence.

Your monster makes your heart lose feelings.

Your monster builds walls around your heart;

And make you cold, full of venom.

But my dear,

Hear to the jingling bells,

Your life is calling you.

Don't miss that call;

And don't let that monster to germinate inside you.

Unfurl yourself;

Clear up your messy mind.

Uproot the seeds,

That let the devil develop beneath you
