Pining For The Moment Poem by Yassar Ali

It’s been a long time since we’ve seen eye to eye
But my heart aches to look into your eyes before I die
One last glance at you with all your beauty
A chance to fulfil my life’s only duty
Ageing doesn’t seem to affect you at all
Your my life, my identity, my body and soul
I can remember the taste of her lips
The long nights and romantic trips
The long hours after school
When I tried to play it cool
But then later on I couldn’t help it
I poured out my heart bit by bit
How do I explain to you
What am going through
You turned me down
Now am wandering around
Without you I lose hope
Leaving me unable to cope
I hear the echo of your voice
Leaving me no actual choice
But to run till I find you
With love that is true
But why do I feel an emptiness in my heart
Whenever my baby and me are so far apart
What can I do to make you see
That the key to your heart is me
If you’re looking for me look in your heart
When you and me are far apart
Am not like the other guys who just play
Am here girl and am here to stay
Baby give me one more chance
Only for you I saved the last dance
You were my sun and you were my earth
We were destined to be since our birth
But then again who am I to tell you all this
You knew I was the one after our first kiss
I want to share my life with you
But you know what you got to do
Its getting late so might as well call it a night
As I lay in bed holding your precious photo tight
