Sounds in Shades
by Swaink Das

I bleed I bleed
  no pain you felt
I cried I cried
  no tears you melt.

I smiled I smiled
  no charm you shade
I whispered I whispered
  no thought you made.

I bleed I smiled
  no spunk you ensured
I cried I whispered
  no words you composed.

I waited I waited
  no trauma you pored
I misled I misled
  no storm you foretold.

I bided I bided
  no shadow you cajoled
I hoped I hoped
  no fortune you assured.

I waited I bided
  no hands you waved
I missed I hoped
  no faith you devoted.

I bleed I bleed
  no pain you felt
I cried I cried
  no tears you melt.
