Kavitha Krishnamurthy - Tears speak

My dry tears speak
A thousand verses
With meaning so deep
That you can’t read

The tale of a longing heart
The tale of a nonviolent war
The tale of a haunting past
The tale of a tormenting present
The tale of a hopeful future

The tale engraved
In the wall of my heart
With my blood and breath
The heart just weeps
As the blood seeps

And my dry tears speak
A thousand verses
With meaning so deep
That you can’t read

Kavitha Krishnamurthy
