what you din't see..

that crumpled
white sheet of paper
that you found on your bed
that you threw away
had my heart written on it.

i won't blame you
for thinking
the paper was blank
because, i know
when i was writing that letter
my pen
was weeping tears

fine,
your eyes din't see
those letters in tears.

but tell me,
when your fingers felt
the cold dampness of that paper,
didn't your heart
feel the sting in my eyes?

"pen

Nice. :)

But if i may ask, is it your general style that you leave the first letters without caps?

Nirmal Joy said...

@ adeeba : to be frank, i hadn't noticed that..:) but since my poems are usually long sentences broken up for emphasis, there are very few places i think capitals are actually needed. what do you think?

AdeebA said...

Well, infact im happy to find somebody who believes in breaking up lines for emphasis. Just like me ;)

But yeah, caps at some places, say,at
"i won't blame ". "fine" etc would just be fine.
