Forgotten Desert Poem by Abrar Ajaz Wani

I see restlessness in my soul,
After long ago you came again.
Nay real but saw you in my dream.
I almost had forgotten about you
All those memories were gone then,
There was nothing about you left.
Time settled every thought of yours.
Every knot and bond was broken
And I have a new life now,
You too are happy somewhere,
We are both done and parallel!
Never think about each other.

I know, but ye know not,
Of what happened last night?
You hold me so close to you,
And I traced like the old days,
You looked in my eyes,
With same innocence of smile,
You after years touched me again,
In the dream I found old colors,
Of old-love and of your presence.
And you spoke out to ask me,
'I heard you are in love again? '
'Who is she? And how she is? '

You are for granted in my world
So sure I'm you seize to exist
I'm now better than the past
Every wound gifted, is healed
All your paintings are sealed
But then for what reason,
You came again and so sudden
In a connection-less manner
I remember you went apart,
Promising me ne'er to forget
For sure but fail to keep promise
Or you lost way to me O' dear?
I don't now wait for anyone.


In a dark night, and hidden from all
Why you came again to me?
In my thought you are;
But as a Forgotten desert.
Once there was the light-city
Where I wanted to live forever
Nay now that is but ruined,
Everything turned forgotten desert…
