I floated in her world once

Oh I can still feel those pleasant mornings

where every sunbeam was a poem

sweet,symbolic,blissful

resonated by her peacock cries 

Tender as her pigeon gait.

For long,I lived in spiritual ease,

in saturninity and with extravagance

I've lived with 'I can do anything for you'

searching packets of happiness for her 

My heart is weary as she has absconded

My trusting soul , so enervated

Verses and shadows are my only weapons

Pale as her wings are my hands now.

I cried in her hardships,

unknown to my own poverty

I prayed for her prosperity

in the golden seasons of prominence 

I embraced gods who once robbed her.

I floated in her world once

My finite needs were known to her

but I was a burden to her innocence

I was the mortal bit in her radiance

aspiring to acquire infinity for her.

Snapshots of our evolving life with postcards and snippets of values and dreams, made into something supernatural and profound when told by you.

[SHEEMA HUQ]

words of love expressed through royal/beaurocratic barrries of prestige and responsibility I gather, I think that you have, powerfully captured his longing, his desire to be with the one he loves, such a cleverly crafted narrative, I felt
