When the pangs of separation <br />Had taken the heart in desperation <br />The thought of the finality of being <br />The first hospitality in the dark <br />I beat the wall artificial <br />Fearing the closeness would be so near <br />Till the next dawn the heart pounds <br />So used to the sunrise every day <br /> <br />Rain of happiness for the loneliness <br />Dropping on earth I wish <br />Shall tap on my door closed forever <br /> <br />With both hands like wings in the air <br />I flew to the rain for the drops <br />On my face down to the chest <br />I held my palms up for the splash <br />With open eyes I saw the visions <br />Freedom why not we have in common <br />Alienated for fear of being soaked <br />Like the mysterious inaudible notes <br />My steps toward you were carrying me <br /> <br />Like swans in the dance of love <br />Rhythm of the tapping sound was like <br />Angels were speaking in my ears <br />I was standing in the midst of the crossroad <br />They thought I had gone to the unself <br />They thought I was dreaming heaven <br />30/7/2009<br /><br />Sadiqullah Khan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/rain-of-happiness/
