Woman
A woman’s eye
Bears the brunt
Of releasing the sorrow
Of all those around her
Not revealing
Unable to reveal
Those hundred words buried
Rain through one silent wail
She voices those delicate memories
Like a finely tuned veena at the slightest touch
She flutters like a tender leaf
At the pressure of sorrow invisible
Within her heart arched like a bow
She’s the naari* that bears everybody’s
Accumulated tension
She renders meaning to her surroundings
When they abruptly turn extraneous
She’s the protagonist of that scene
She’s a transparent curtain
That subtly displays those invisible roles
*naari: bowstring as well a woman
