*a Song Of Sorrow* Poem by Mohammad Akmal Nazir

*a Song Of Sorrow*

Rating: 2.4


I write and remove thy name,
In this way I punish my heart,
Thy love was nothing but a game,
And I was defeated by thy ways smart.

I am still alive leading a life of curse,
My vivacity departs, my light is fading,
No one is here to find me a nurse,
And yet my peace thy memory is invading,

O soul, o life, be ready for something worst,
Something thy would never have seen,
My death will soon quench thy thirst,
Thou may get what I mean.

Every stanzas have the rhythmic ending and these are strong structure of this poem with one focus of the idea; how love had defeated the poet and bring him to the deep river of sadness. Excellent poem with pain and grief...

That's a lot of sorrow, , I can see the bleeding broken heart by who left him.. that's really sad, , your poem is so great & it make me feel like that what you say is happening in front of my eyes, , but nooooooo the end shouldn't be to die cause if someone left the one who love him without any reason that means he didn't deserve his love! ! ! ! ! sorry I just got mad cuz I hate who do like that... really you are a great poet, , regards, Faith..

Love is gone, and it will come again, throughout the eternal journey. Not a curse but a new beginning, good write.
