Out Of Words Poem by Ayesha Shahid

Is this how you portray me
Am I a poet to you?
Have I become the subject of
A love that once was true
A poet, no! A lover was I
A lover of the East
Who loved you more than love itself
But still you paid no heed
I've finally raised my white flags
I've made myself so cold
Beneath my surface smile I have
Managed to hide your exasperating tone
I admit I've been a fool sometimes
But now I've left the past behind
I guess I'm finally done with you
I'm done and out of words for you.
