Sorry, it was not you!

You screamed

“Off, you go!”

When your eyes ignore

And my tears deny

This pain seems senseless…

How can I say…

I am hurt by your words?

You pacified

“Sorry…”

But when yours sorry passed-by

And I, as a lonesome beggar-

Your sorry paid no coins to me

How can I say...

Your apology healed me?

You turned-off

“Speechless!”

When these ears longed for,

Your words of care,

Blank, I stare at the sky…

How can I say…

I heard those unspoken words?

So I say,

Sorry, it was not you

Who… 

Hurt me

And healed me

And understood me!

Sorry, it was not you…

Under this open sky-

A thought-out-of-restlessness….
