O what is this pain
That brings tears
To our eyes?
You and me,
Both know the truth
Then why do we cry?
Each time
We promise
Not to think of the future,
It invariably comes
And stands
Before the mind’s eye.
Let not this pain
Overpower
And subdue us.
Let it not
Crush
And pursue us.
Let us face it
With the happiness
That we share.
Let us overpower,
Subdue, crush,
And banish this pain
Forever
From the realm
Of our love.

HEy, this one can help lots of lovers in distress! Love the smooth flow! How do you write so effortlessly? ! Perhaps, that proves why you're doing Literature! Preets
A good piece of advice for every one who's going through this pain. Asma, i echo what Joshua has said. You never cease to amaze us! Love, Reuben.
Asma you never seize to amaze me with your poetry...a true gift of inspiration for the rest of us...take care.

I would like to translate this poem
what a wonderful way of consoling and self-consoling portaryed in this simple and effective poem, though the poet knows the truth of future yet am as a reader i understand the truth of her emotion and feelings.it seems the poet is afraid of future as the future is posing a threat to her love.her stress and distress are so very vivid.i pray the Almighty to remove the hurdles on her path so that she is united with her love eternally.a very very emotional poem from an equally emotional poet.thanx
