One Evening Poem by Muhammad Shanazar

One Evening



When I peeped
Into the ocean of your eyes,
I went on seeing it
Time and again.
Perhaps,
When you are away,
The ocean
Remains in surge too,
Because the feeling that crops up
In the ocean,
Makes my emotions wet.

It happens so
Each time, each night
When you are beside me
Each wave of the ocean
Damping my each feeling
Passes though
Each pore of my existence;
And when you are away,
These waves, sometimes
In the dark recess of the heart,
Sometimes in dreams,
Sometimes in fictions,
Sometimes in the abodes
Of unexpressed desires,
Smash their heads.

Waves of the undulating ocean
Of your eyes saturate my existence
And only I can sense the feeling,
For you have empowered only me
To fathom depth of the ocean,
You have empowered me, only me.
