A Lonely Night Poem by Akhtar Jawad
A Lonely Night
The desire that was seeded by dusk,
My heart was twice baked to be a rusk,
My soul by the hot fire of the sadness
Still waiting you with my madness
You cannot come to me
My eyes are wet to see
Another moonlit night
So cool so warming, so dim so bright
Will be wasted in loneliness,
Without you it's a mess!
The other side by a cold fire of fears
A smile on my lips, eyes wet with tears
How I shall control the tsunami of streams
I know you'll come in my dreams
To make me more helpless!
More and more restless!
What a dawn it would be
That I never want to see,
When I shall awake with a desire changed in a sigh,
Could I sleep in my dreams till you fly in the sky so high!
And suddenly you come back to shake
My body and my soul both you awake!
When the day has dimmed
And the stars start peeping
From the windows in the clouds,
I start missing you for reasons unknown
Dear conqueror of my heart.
Wherever you are, do come
For every minute is an eternity.
A poem of love and loneliness that holds us spellbound. Magnificent write.10
