University Days Poem by Akhtar Jawad

University Days

Rating: 5.0


I know like a thief you think of me,
In the diary of dreams you ink of me,
You don't look into my eyes and you don't smile,
You avoid the tracks of a teen juvenile,
I have seen your casual looks at me you look more charming
Go on looking in the same manner, it's more warming,
The moon too shines on skies at a distant place,
I am a partridge deprived of embrace,
Even then it flies at night and when tired sleeps lonely,
But in his dreams he cries and weeps lonely,
You are a moon to shine I shall sleep somewhere,
Nights come and go I shall weep somewhere.

Dreams of years ago why do I recollect,
At this stage of life are you restless of a theft,
I wish I could see how you look nowadays?
As a Grandmother your styles and ways!
Love to see the same casual eyes, but with a smile,
What else is remained for this old juvenile!
It wasn't love but charming even if a naught,
When I think of it I miss something I don't know what,
How lovely were the moments how nice were the days!
Have you still innocence and naught of the plays?

Going back to the beautiful university days....! I suppose both of you were in the same university and the teenage love you developed then matured into a stable relationship and ended in your marriage. Over the years your love also has been growing, but lacks the ebullient splendour of your youthful days and now nostalgically you are looking back to those days! Lovely recollections!
