Confession! Poem by Naveed Iqbal

You were a stranger, I confess,
So much anonymous, beyond guess.

My solitude hadn't lodged you ever,
I had dreamt of you never never.

Neither you peeped in my thought,
Nor your glimpse I ever caught.

Suddenly you blinked like a flash,
Filling my beat box's every dash.

Capturing every tick of the days,
Shadowing nights in maddening ways.

Such a nectar I had never tasted,
Instants without you went wasted.

Why didn't you stepped in before?
I would had lived the life more.

Now you 're circulating inside me,
In each other 've penetrated we.

You less I'm perfectly a stranger,
Your negligence puts life in danger.

You can be gifted to past never,
You are needed just for ever.
