  1. Sometimes one just can;t help but view such gifts as one of many. Not given much thought, very ordinary! Nicely Ayushi!

  2. Hi there! I know this is kinda off topic but I'd be interested in a collaboration.
    My blog covers a lot of interesting and helpful posts just like yours and I feel we could greatly benefit from each other. And also, I think you'll love my recent blog post titled Top 5 Ever Green Self-Improvement Articles You Must Read

    I'm hoping to hear from you too and quickly, you've got a great blog here.

    Daniel.

  3. Unspoken, as in vows unspoken? Unreturned as in love? Or just an ordinary gift? Nice! Just mbiguous enough to keep me thinking.

    1. I intended to keep it ambiguos, Karen. Can be interpreted in a lot of ways. One is definitely the way you interpreted it. And another can be from a third persons point of view. A person is attending the wedding of his beloved. Giving her a forced smile and seeing her with another man. What is killing him more is that his love was never returned and never spoken. So hell on earth!
