The Untitled Poem


The Untitled Poem


Parted perhaps ways that we have for always,
Right is it to wonder about the past -
About all that's as if it never was,
Things which in my feeble memory won’t last?
Is it in my rights to keep those nights as
Keepsakes of the blithesome time that’s gone -
Such times when fickle conversations would
Have continued without any lines drawn?
Apt is it to remember your black hair
That you’d, in your photo, let lovingly loose -
Enticing me still to admire you still,
With your love of Rumi to reproduce?
At times, now, when there grows an urge to
Revisit what is you, I can't get past the inquiry -
"Is this really how it was destined to be?"
