A drop of tear

a poem by Mohamed Shuaib

I remember the day
You came in my life,
Like a star above
Shining all the night.

My heart sensed this love all ways
But after I saw you, it came to my realization
That I burnt for you and else no one.
Where were you hidden when I was alone?

Then like a star my heart gloved.
It kept shining like the sun
That shines till the hour of dusk.
I felt the gray skies I’ll see none.

In my leisure I used
To plan, the words I should
Speak to make you mine,
When I would meet you first time.

Days passed, months gone,
But I didn’t find a nice time
To say all that
I’ve for you in my mind.

Long, long later I met you
To reveal you my thoughts
But before I could match the words
You told I’m too late for you love someone.

But I hope that one day you’ll
Understand, and shed at least
A tear from your eyes, for one
Who loves you until his breath ends.
