That day,I did not steal your coat out of jealousy..

Neither I stole it to protect myself from cold..

How could I even steal something handwoven by me?

Dear friend..

I hope atleast I can call you that..

Do you see me now?

The person afraid of attention,of eyes,of touch..

Why would I even wish to stand in your place..

When all I pray for is you to shine..

I would not explain,why I took your coat that night..

I hope you have figured it out now..

If you have not..

Then I am sorry for the theft..

But I cannot return it to you anymore..

For I am a beggar..

So if you need,I can peel of my skin and make you a coat..
