Together, and yet so far apart you and I…
In love still, but we struggle you and I…
Hearts filled with love and yet broken…
The silence deafening, so much left unspoken…
Building walls against it all to shelter…
Our deeds pragmatic, fearful not to falter…
Denying the heart, just to survive…
Against a love that cries to thrive…
Life goes on empty and cold…
Fearful as ever, and yet so bold…
Our wings broken, incapable of flight…
With memories we live each day and night…
Through it all, wrong or right…
A flame burns still, ever so bright…
A confession, left unspoken…
Despite of it all, I have not forgotten!!!
How I trembled when you were near…
How my aim was so clear…
How your hand felt in mine…
How a kiss was so divine…
How it felt when we embraced…
How my claim on you I traced…
How complete you made me feel…
How those dreams we made so real…
Of us, who knows what will become…
No one can foretell, the future to come…
Although, wrong or right, I cannot distinguish…
Your love, I know, I won’t relinquish…
Forever dissolved within my blood…
I surrender to this overwhelming flood…
As long as blood flows in these veins…
Yours, my heart forever remains…
Our future austere, or at least uncertain….
Despite of it all, my beloved, “I have not forgotten”!!!
wow kami.
ReplyDeletethat's really heart wrenching.
it made me cry, right in the middle of seeing patients
Mojdeh joon,
ReplyDeleteAlthough making you cry was the last thing on my mind, and although I did not mean the piece to come across as hearth wrenching, I am glad that it had an impact on you as a reader.
As a writer, poet, or simply a story teller, there is no greater gift to me than knowing that in some way, I was able to touch my reader.
Thank you for the comment azizam
