My Desirous State

And when you look at me
with those pale eyes
void of any expression
or any expectations
just a mere hollow gaze
staring in oblivion
like some barren land with nothingness
yet, despite such quietness
you profoundly hold
many untold stories
and agonies of some past storms
as if a heart waiting to be beheld
so, I chose to stay
curious and draped in an inquisitive love

  1. The void of expression always hold some untold stories, some hidden scars, and battles lost and won.
    You chose to say, not all will do that.
    A wonderful thought and a brilliant piece.
