On the balcony of love <br />In empty spaces <br />When I looked up <br />In my wonderings <br />Of the city of love <br />Up in the sky <br />Like the north star <br />The red velvety sheen <br />From behind the all revealing <br />Veil of love <br /> <br />That window <br />Where I would spend nights <br />On the corner of the street <br />For you to appear <br />Never did my talk reach you <br />But the arrow of glance <br />In the coziness of your bosom <br />My desires lead me <br />Never say goodbye <br /> <br />For I shall visit <br />And your foot prints <br />The dust I shall touch <br />As symbol on my forehead <br />Many a bows have I made <br />A bow in the beloved’s street <br />For I know I shall break <br />My head one day <br />On the stepping stone of your door <br />15/10/2008<br /><br />Sadiqullah Khan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/balcony-i/
