Lekhny composition -21-Mar-2022

And I penned it down

And I penned it down till the last word from my heart flowed,

It was brewing like a volcano, ready to explode,

Those suppressed emotions which found no voice to express,

It kept simmering, and I felt incredibly distressed.

Looked at the soothing moon for comfort,

It shone bright, and I felt it tried to ignore,

Looked at the swinging trees which moved in the blowing winds,

They were too glad to know my anguish.

Approached my friends to decipher my plight,

They were in a mood to party and gave me a look straight,

As their excitement had reached the height,

I walked away from them, unwilling to spoil their evening, which was bright.

Abuses lament, and whimpers,

All had made its home in my conscience,

The only best friend who came to my rescue was my pen,

Which listened patiently to all the filled-in turmoil.

I penned down all the exploding sentiments,

They flowed like the hot running lava,

Cooling my mind and heart, filling them with delight,

I realized the value of an incredible, silent, and patient mate.
