A Silver Night

With the moon and the stars.

A SILVER NIGHT

It looks all dark yet bright,

The water shines in the moonlight.

The cold wind shivers me,

My tears you could never see.

It appears all silver, in this lonely lane,

I have fallen in love with you,

Is it a boon or a bane?

Standing alone and watching the lake,

Wishing you were by my side,

I think about the promises you made,

It's still unfulfilled and my feelings I cannot hide. 

It feels my throat has been choked by the cold wind,

I cannot utter a single word,

I have a conscious mind which only thinks about you,

And a stupid, silly heart who still loves you. 

I walk alone all the way to my home,

With those nostalgic memories of us in my mind,

I have lived each day in remembrance of you,

And feel like I have to sleep gazing at the moon that shines.

I am dying each day waiting for you,

How I am spending my days you have no clue.

My hope is fading and so are my memories,

I just hope I never forget those good things about you.

This evokes images of a lake at night bathed in moonlight as the protagonist sits and contemplates their emotions. Nice.

A beautiful piece to be sure, but I am not sure if I am able to relate to it right now.
"And a stupid, silly heart who still // loves you"
A line that I think really underlines the naivety of waiting for someone that won't show. Thank you for the read request. Here's hoping things work out for you.

[Najam Us Saher]

Oh! Thank you so much. ☺

"And feel like I have to sleep gazing at the moon that shines."

This is the line that really touched me. I liked how you laid out the longing in each of your words. Simple but effective.

Nicely penned, Najam :)
