The Girl In Veil Poem by Shreya Gupta
The Girl In Veil
There is a girl, always alone in a side,
A few really know her, but none knows her hides.
She laughs. She loves. She screams. She flies at times,
Though to see her real face, no one tries.
No. She is not double-faced. She is just in a veil,
All she needs is a soul without any guile.
Years its been, still I have never gone through her,
Years I have to go, still I feel unworthy for her.
Maybe I am not all she needs to unveil,
I lack the purity, the chastity she needs, to reveal.
Where does she stay, are you not wondering?
Let me tell you, she stays nowhere but within me.
Yes, she is the girl hidden beneath my covering,
The one, whom I have still not found, my discovery is continuing.
very beautifully penned dear poet! so lovely that i felt like reading once again.........so nice keep writing.....welcome to poemhunter!
Loving piece of poetry depicting the essence and intricacies of self discovery, well articulated and insightfully penned in poetic diction with conviction. Self discovery is the first step towards self actualization. Definitely a nice poem to share on the site. Thanks for sharing Shreya. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
