This is a translation of my poem in Marathi “अव्यक्त”. Which I have posted just before this post.

Unexpressed

Mind is clouded

With a dark thick fog

Pervading deep

In all my thoughts

Nothing is clear

Nothing can be seen

Lost are the words

Or hiding somewhere

I want to speak

Convey a lot

Bottled up emotions

Need to be uncorked

Before they start

Burning the insides

But words don’t form

Don’t come out

And tongue is a prisoner

Of closed tight lips

Eyes though speak

Convey everything

No one bothers

No one’s there

Who’ll have a look

And decipher them
