Covert banana ripens in the bowl
Disguised a presence seen but rarely seen
The curse misunderstood a hidden toll
Existing passive fading in between
Forever a desire to break the mould
Imprisoned shackled still without a word
The silence binds the thoughts and dreams untold
Consuming vacuum leaves a voice unheard
Forgotten roots are lost a world away
Identity unborn ignored unknown
The loss, a separation, fateful day
That glimpse of life the raw a constant prone
Before you were a silent tale untold
Today I ponder all that I behold
