Cannot Be A Lie... Poem by Shaikh Haneef

Cannot Be A Lie...

Rating: 5.0


My Heart Will Be Your Home...

There you were in my life
so unexpectedly,
You filled a hole in my heart
which meant the world to me.

You showed me things through your words
that I have never known,
day by day, week by week
my feelings for you have grown.

You told me want you wanted
and I believed it true,
you were different from the others
unlike everything they do.

Slowly you took me inward
like a moth to a flame,
by chance was our meeting
and I'll never be the same.

I swore I wouldn't do it
I would not let you in,
but with your words, touch and charm
a journey I'd begin.

The first time that you 'touched' me
a tear fell from my eye,
for it was deeper than my skin you touched
this can not be a lie.

The poet though determined to control his feelings, his emotions and feelings have grown for someone and it makes him more sad...though not clear why is it so through the poem. Good write. Emotional tone with a sad note, 'The first time that you 'touched' me a tear fell from my eye, for it was deeper than my skin you touched this can not be a lie.' Beautifully expressed!
