He looked into my eyes
Red, swollen, unslept
I tried to smile
Memories of erstwhile
I’d leave him long back already
But he stood unnoticed but necessary
He saw me move & saw me fall
He saw me fail & saw me crawl
I’d leave him long back already
Still he stood unnoticed but necessary
Today I met him yet again
My cold hands he held in rain
Many a came in the meanwhile
None a steady hand or glory to stand high
I’d leave him long back already
Yet he stood unnoticed but necessary
A look at him a lot he changed
His arms now stronger and
the hair I liked longer
Not heeding my tears asked I
Reason for waiting and the why
As I’d leave him long back already
Why he stood unnoticed but necessary
“Ananya” the first word I heard
That moment for me the world blurred
“Many did come and pass by
And you ask me I stay why
All wanted you as silent wind
None could handle your heart’s stormy cry
I knew the waves come to kiss the shore
I can handle your heart’s storm core
Yes, you did leave me long back already
You my love, reason for me to remain unnoticed yet necessary
You my treasure, reason for me to remain unnoticed yet necessary.”

THe last line does it all for me, unnoticed yet necessary – a silent fruit in the background of a tree. We have a phrase for that in kannada called – yele mare kaayi meaning a fruit hidden amidst the leaves..
