Once I saw <br />My three doors away neighbour <br />To set his cloths on fire <br /> <br />The cloths were beautiful <br />And costly <br /> <br />He bought them all <br />Recently <br /> <br /> In them he fitted well <br />And looked smart, too <br /> <br />Till date <br />He kept secret from all <br />The cause behind his drastic act <br /> <br />But today <br />He accidentally reveals to me <br /> <br />That he was threatened <br />To leave alone <br /> <br />If he loves any one <br />Except whom he promised <br /> <br />but he was falling in love <br />With his fancy dresses<br /><br />Abdul Wahab<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/burning-of-cloths-sufi-poem/
