Elegy for love
By: Amir Shafi
I chased you in baffling curves of time, miles ago I saw you
I know your smell of soul before, when I never know you
I feel you in gusts of fleeting fragrances of reminiscence
I froze, when my eyes saw you darling baby rose
I learned to love and live with you, without you
I live below the gleaming light of SAME new moon
I love wintery winds, gliding your ringlets lovely
I saw nothing but you in golden rays, in rainy days
I explored all its untrodden paths in Voyage of love
I toiled all hours of my life, to catch your heart
I got now but abode in city of ceaseless Agony
I hear only weary sighs of heart in worldly melodies
I lovelorn burnt down to ashes in hellish lap of separation
I rotted in the bottom like a shattered pale leaf of autumn
I keep thinking about you until blossom passed, wither came
I sung elegy for my love with cold moon and fallen stars
