I don’t know why I have nurtured
A nameless desire to compose
A poem to tribute you, in which
My heart urges to write all pangs and pains,
That I went through while being in your love,
I should inscribe the agony of separation,
The moments of union,
Include all colours of the seasons,
Confine my melancholic thoughts,
Describe smouldering memories,
In a so much splendid way
That they should become precedents
Of diction, similes and metaphors,
But I don’t know whether hassles
Of life would allow me to contemplate
On your memories in solitude
Or I shall have to leave the world
With the nameless desire
Encasing it into my pain-ridden heart.
