Haunting Memories Poem by Sadiqullah Khan

Haunting Memories

Rating: 5.0


But let the mystery unfold
When my thoughts are yours
In one voice how we speak
A duet when we do not look
In each other eyes and touch
A feeling is it when I escape
For I understand the anguish of love
Away and away shall I run
In the desert with no name
Eye to eye when once I pledge
Of the loves pledge I shall not keep
My tavern and tavern and the goblet
When the evening comes with the red sunset
I open my heart like a nightingale to sing
The lamentations sweet for the rose is but shy
Never shall the rose understand unless the autumn
When its petals shall wither on the ground
But the memory remains for the nightingale to haunt

Wow-- wonderful Sadiq, let me see if I can write something befitting--++++++10 yes let the mystery enfold when our thoughts are the same, the duets are ours, coz our heartbeats are one, knows no language, only the anguish of love Do not run away into that desert of no name, keep thou the pledge, and the goblet of wine when the red of the sunset, opens your heart, to sing like the nightingales, for the rose is not shy, and shall always understand, that its petals may wither and die for a summer flower is to the summer sweet it may die that nite but t'was a beacon of light. regards anju
