First Lover Poem by Akhtar Jawad

First Lover

Rating: 5.0


I know I am blind to you,
Still I can find you,
In colors I see you,
In fragrance I feel you,
I sweetness I taste you,
In music I listen to you.
Alas! You touch me but I couldn't touch you.
I can imagine your smile when you broke me into two,
Thanks my creator, now I can touch you, too.
But who is the one who taught me to touch?
Along with you I am thankful to him, so much.
Like blind to you I'm blind to him,
Still I can find him,
In colors he is with you,
In fragrance he is with you,
In sweetness he is with you,
In music he is with you,
Can't he leave you alone once ever?
Never, perhaps he is your first lover.
