Do Not Read My Poems…. [for You ]

Rating: 5.0


Do not read my poems…
After I am dead
As a lament, a wail
An elegy, a requiem
Do not read my poems…
After I am gone
When no more I can
Hear your velvet voice.
Do not read my poems…
Alone without me
To comment along
And read with you
But, do read my poems
When I beside you lie
With my head resting
On your supporting arm
Listening to you read
In whisper, in kisses
In silence, in love
In sleep, in dream
Watching you feel
Every word I wrote
I’ll close my eyes - Love
Brush aside my hair
With your breathe
Which half veils my face
Sleepless fevered I wrote
Read me my poems
Now sing me a lullaby
Rock me to sleep
On your broad chest
Diving into your eyes
A thousand times
I am refreshed
By your smile
I’ll write on you a poem
Traced by my fingertips
To be etched in your heart
And burnt into your soul!
So, do not read my poems…

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

poetry by itself has a life i think..when i read gitanjali much after it was actually written i had a felling that tagore was sitting along with me and getting his poem done pulling the words from me...poems would sustain

sea.. dense with salt.. made of tears... you are that... dead sea..... being a river, all my journeys end up in you.... river.. nothing before a wide expanse of water... but the density reduces... when fresh words pierce your soul... ecstasy... supreme bliss..... tears taste sweet...... we don't words to converse........ being addicts of poetry we live life fully.................
