The Unsaid

Lots of love around There's no shortage of affection and care It seems like a dream Happiness and smiles around me everywhere Loaded with ornaments, I feel like a princess Shining gold and twinkling diamonds I am studded with world's most precious pieces Receiving complements from loads of friends All wishing me for a happy married life All call it as a day they would have wished for I seem surely the luckiest wife It's more than what a girl can wish The In-laws as caring as my own mother A gem of a person is my lovely husband My parents really need not ever bother I am entering a family of riches A family of smiles, a family of pride This new home is really a dreamland I bet this can't ever be really denied As I lift my eyes and look at my husband I see his smile and love loaded eyes I return a smile and make him happy To make me smile, he continuously tries I hear people say-The girl's fortunate I hear people say-my parents must be proud My parents are happy to see me in this place People say-They have got a daughter who is a pearl in the crowd As my husband moves to talk to his friends I take out my purse to adjust my face I look in the mirror to adjust the ornaments I look in the mirror to bring a smile on my face With a kerchief, I just wipe a tear that rolled off I try to wipe off the extra makeup efforts As another tear rolls down I tell observers that the nose ornament hurts I search for beauty creams in the small purse Then again, I adjust my hair I look at the small image that seems to be hidden in it I try to close the purse, but my eyes still stare As my husband nears, I manage a smile, and close the purse Before closing the purse, I adjust my face And see to it that the third tear dries Happy that no one looked at my makeup purse The mirror I look in, are my real love's eyes. -- As read by in a girl’s eyes
