As If..... Poem by Lateef Jan Afridi

As if some request in your heart Is suppressed,
As if through your eyes You want to say something,
As if while staying awake
A lifetime has passed,
As if there is still life left
But the breaths have stopped, On every meeting of ours,
I feel,
As if your Eyes Are asking me something,
Often while walking on a path, I get this feeling
As if your eyes secretly Are staring at me,
Contained in a moment has come
A journey of ages
As if life is moving Very very fast
All the time and just like this
I keep thinking about you
As if every breath of mine
Is written for you

To some one special
