Untold Love Poem by Abdul Wahab

Untold Love

Rating: 4.9


I saw you
Never before

But something
I feel

In my mind,
Which I can not explain

You do not have
The beauty which mesmerises

Nor have you
The prettiest face

You are just another
Normal human being

But my heart sings
A song

Full of praise
Of it

I never heard
That before

And it speaks to me
So softly

As wind speaks
To the trees

Before I can say
Anything

You are gone

Drops of tears fall
On the floor

I do not suppose
To realise it coming

As it was such
A spontaneous overflow

Classical thinkers employed classification as a way to define and assess the quality of poetry. Notably, the existing fragments of Aristotle's Poetics describe three genres of poetry—the epic, the comic, and the tragic—and develop rules to distinguish the highest-quality poetry in each genre, based on the underlying purposes of the genre.[15] Later aestheticians identified three major genres: epic poetry, lyric poetry, and dramatic poetry, treating comedy and tragedy as subgenres of dramatic poetry.[16] Aristotle's work was influential throughout the Middle East during the Islamic Golden Age, [17] as well as in Europe during the Renaissance.[18] Later poets and aestheticians often distinguished poetry from, and defined it in opposition to prose, which was generally understood as writing with a proclivity to logical explication and a linear narrative structure.[19]
