Voiceless Refusals

a poem by Pravin

Timeless consequence of my
Infallible yearning for your soul
Has left me in shudders!
The naked love I proposed to declare
Is still in my throat.
If only Gods would grant me the boon
Yet, as I wish I can imagine your
murderous scorn!
You kill me not only with my love,
But also with your voiceless refusal

If I ever fade out before these
Lines crumble like withered leaves,
Just remember – You are what I am and
You are what I could yet be…
