Expressing Love

 

It is a fact, that Indians are shy to express

Their feelings are too tough to guess


Is not intimacy, a scale of love

It forms its core, underneath, within, above


Then why are they shy, to even hold a hand

Even in the photographs when they all stand


There may be a difference, village and city

But kissing in public is always so nitty


Maybe our culture shows love in a different way

Maybe it is asking 'how was your day?'


Or 'if you had food or not?'

Or the jasmine gajra he bought


Or the shy smile she gave

'I love you' is sometimes too brave.
