Buried Deep Inside.... Poem by Raihana Abdul Jabbar

The murky shadows..
Stillness of the dark....
Chilly night, hooting hollows...
No sign of my lark...

I'd said 'Silly pet he's been...''
Singing all day long....
One day he was no more seen...
He'd flown along....

But now I'm lonely
And he never returns....
[Because he thinks I detest him]
After all he wasn't silly...
My heart burns...

Love once expressed,
Would stay forever...
Bury it in your heart...
You could find it never.....

I miss my birdy....And this poem is on account of my indifference towards the bird when he was with me....But when he flew away...I realized how much he'd meant to me...I'd buried my love many times......And had been too late in realizing my mistake...
