The Grave Of My Love Poem by shakil ahmed

The Grave Of My Love

Rating: 4.8


The grave of my love
Has become a myth
Of ancient kingdom.
Forgotten smiles of long ago
Don't reverberate now
In the mirror of my heart.
Standing on the dusty village path
My sobbing eyes
Can't see the shadowy figure,
Regathering the threads,
From the canvas of memory.
Many times,
After the end of devastating day,
I tried to blow
The dying embers.
Sometime I felt
Pigeon of my mind
Nibbles on my heart
Suffocating me like strangled man
Of terrible scaffold.
My sobbing eyes,
Full with droplets of tears,
Wait for a force
That will slither away
Crimping darkness, and
Wandering clouds
From the sky of my heart
Thriving it
Like a wild flower of
Lovely evergreen forest.

This is a marvelous poem on love having stunning expression. Nice penmanship. Let me quote some lines.. . My sobbing eyes, Full with droplets of tears, Wait for a force That will slither away Crimping darkness, and Wandering clouds From the sky of my heart. Nice metaphor too. Thanks.
