Deep Black Eyes

I saw you crying,

With so much of emotions in your deep black eyes,

Trying to hold not the tears but the anger, the disappointment

Still I could see, how dejected you were

Still I could sense the bitterness of your pain

Your tears did nothing to sooth yours,

But took away the kajal (kohl) from your eyes,

Dragging it and leaving a black trail as it flowed,

Finally dropping on your notebook, your little tear drop died.

But only after it left a smudge mark on the white paper.
