Crazy Night

Arif Mumtaz November 11, 2001

Tags: Love



The fall colours are all but gone

As winter sets in this snowy night

In this dark, sullen, shivering cold

My heart feels its frosty bite

I gaze into the empty sky

Seeking my star, my dragonfly

I see none, for none is there

I lost my love this starless night

As
I walk on the powder snow

Seeking footsteps of the love I know

I see mine and only mine

Hers are lost this snowy night

I take a stroll in our favorite orchard

Which once blossomed with delicious fruit

Now trees are bare and branches dry

Wilderness abounds this stormy night

Be gone! Be lost! O thoughts of mine

You make me feel the by gone time

Those days are all but lost forever

Now there's only this crazy night


About the Author: I am poet residing in Islamabad. I delve into Urdu and English poetry and have written numerous ghazals and nazams.
