I Remember Those Lies Poem by shakil ahmed
I Remember Those Lies
I Remember those lies
I remember those lies
Those were spoken long ago,
Sitting in a green park
Or on the bank of river
I couldn’t recognize
This fair girl
Wearing the garb of a hypocrite
I couldn’t recognize
The smile of that girl
That was painted
In her rosy lips.
I lost myself
At the wink
Of her terribly wild eyes
And her concocted lies.
Her amorous look was,
At the time of every departure,
A thing to remember.
Her lisping words
Seemed true like a child
I couldn’t understand
That a day would come
When I would be beguiled.
I was a fool,
Just like an insect
That jumped into fire
To get ecstatic pleasure.
The fire has burnt
My heart and soul,
Though I live with flesh and bone
Yet in the world, I am terribly alone.

The doublespeak of lovers can create not only misunderstandings but also grave problems for the relationship. Amazing portrayal of the situation. Thanks.
Oh Shakeel, you got a beautiful expression! So true from heart, sweet and poignant!
Heartbreaking story told in such a distinghished manner. Nice usage of words. It flowed beautifully into a tremendous piece of art. KW
Deceit wears many disguises. But no one who seeks love is a fool. We are foolish only when we say we no longer need or want love. A very emotional, well written poem.
