SOMETHING I LOOK AT-438
BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY

A heart that beats

Your tears
find their way to my eyes.
Let my smile
quietly dwell on your lips.

I feel your pain
deep in my heart.
Do you feel as I do,
the burden I keep inside?

Believe me
I have a heart.
A tender heart
that whispers your name.

I have a conscience
shaped by society.
It never allows me
to wander free in the sunshine.

Do you listen
to the beats of my heart,
or turn away from the emotions
that rise for you and sink in me?

Yet I dream
of the day you will know.
That love is the light
where our souls finally meet.
