My Broken Dreams Poem by Shaikh Haneef

I’ve been in darkness for so long just waiting for the light,
And now that you have come my way, my days don’t seem like nights.

I’m glad I’m finally overcome my fear of the other side,
Thank you for showing me the way, by taking me on this ride.

I love you more than life itself
But I’m afraid to love.
My heart is like the fragile wings
Of a tiny little dove.


I'm scared to get too close.
I feel that I can't win.
You'll love me for a little while
Then you'll set me free again.


I can only hope that someday
You'll wake up and you'll find,
That while my heart belongs to yours,
Yours, too, belongs to mine.
