Tell me
Tell me what is in your heart
I have no eye with laser readings
And I am no eagle in high flight
To see your all from the top
II
Tell me
Tell me what is in your heart
I have no smell with inferences
Not like a trained dog on problemed field
Being monitered by ganger high soldiers
III
Tell me
Tell me what is in your heart
I have no hearing like a grasscutter
No heart like a magnetic engine
To draw the pins you hoard
Into your freedom
So tell me
IV
Miles stand between us like an unclimbable wall
Distance keeps distancing
Making laughters awkward
Making happiness painful
Making flutters strong wings into easy flights
Leaving me susceptible to doubts
Doubts which call for bouts
So tell me
Just tell me
V
I would rather I see the brush you keep
Its coloured inks
The words it writes
The deeds they instruct
Than see me in the nude
In your dreamlike fantasies
I need to be in a space within you
A space where none can touch but you
Just tell me
