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.
