My Loneliness Poem by Shamal Akrayi

My dear
Whenever I close my eyes
I find you very near.
I kiss my hand
Where you kissed one day
I feel the fragrance and warmth
of your lips the same way.
I miss you so much
and touch my hand with my eyes.
I feel you are giving me
the same loving touch.
But suddenly I wake up
and find myself alone here.
It comes to me like a knightmere.
Then the wilderness of my lonelyness
frightens me to the extent
I become breathless
I start thinking 'Can I live without you? '
I close my eyes again
The answer comes the same.....NO
