Among These Ruins Poem by persian khushi

Among These Ruins



Oh, among these ruins
How we played
Our childish laughter

Luring lovers
Playing hide and seek
Leaving trails to find

On one such playful day
Passions flared
Our last embrace

Sensing danger
Our laughter choked
They were upon us

Tormented and sneered
With whips beaten
You lost consciousness

Thereafter they turned on me
Breathed my fragrant locks
Pulled at my garments

With enormous strength
You coaxed me to run
You slayed and saved my honour

We sneaked away on your steed
I feared for you then let him lose
He found his way to our caravan

Between these ruins
I hear your screams
Stains of what once was

Your band I still wear
Love growing in my belly
Our last embrace
