Unraveling an enigma



One moment I see an expanse of wit & humour
The next moment, an epitome of silence
Reminds me of a heart wounded & scarred
And a soul that’s searching for something
I wonder what?

I stumble upon the thoughts he’s penned,
Beyond the ordinary… masterpieces
He has the makings of a genius
Yet all of it is a secret
I wonder why?

When I expect a straight-from-the-heart response,
He throws at me, one devoid of all emotion
I wish I could tear the façade apart
And get a glimpse of what lies beneath…
I wonder how?

I wish he would look around,
Believe in the magic of trust
And give his heart a chance… Set it free
I am sure he’ll come around
I wonder when?
