Poetry

My Ode To You

I am drowned in your thoughts
Though I am not in your heart
I seek you in my eyes
Where I built a palace for you

You pull me into the bog
Of your words of love that I lost
I gasp for my breath
Which is caught in your breath

I long those long hours
Which bloomed my lips
Those days were the days
When I was drenched in your love

Lake of your sweet thoughts
Sinks me deep in your love
Light as feather flies my heart
On writing your name on lips

Isn’t it a sweet pain
Which sucks my attention?
Can’t we ever flow together
In the gushing river of life?

Can’t those thorns of pain
be burnt in the fire of love?
I can neither wrap you in my thoughts
Nor can I slip off from your heart…
