Lampost Poem by Naveed Khalid

Where but in my heart you dwell,
at a supreme seat of emotions,
oft express'd in words
by a sensibility of love;
untouch'd by what I least possess,
a pure heaven, a native land of fairies!
but O that stumbl'd feet!
a crowd stampeded the throne,
and a crown in my hands
slipp'd away in dessert sands,
that by counting more in time,
less by light is spent;
for when I write you,
I write you more with love.
