My wish, my all, my spirit <br />Only a few rhymes last night <br />And at that with your words <br />Not till early morning <br />Will my poems be definitely gone <br />What a restless chance of time <br />Why this deep despair when need screams <br />Can our life endure except through devotion <br />Through not drowning every hope from other love <br />Can we change the line <br />That you are not belong to me <br />Surely I not force <br />Look out into the beauties of garden and river <br />And relieving your soul with that which must be <br />Longing demands everything and that very justly <br />Thus it is to me beside you <br />And to your beside me <br />But you deny so easily that I have to fight to live for your sake and mine <br />If our love were finally blended <br />You would feel the misery of it <br />As little as I <br />This journey was a helpless one <br />Lacking boat and then chose another wave <br />But what an awful one <br />At the stage before the last <br />I was warned not to sail at storm <br />I was made fearful of a whirlpool <br />But that only pulled me in the more danger <br />And I was wrong <br />Yet I got some pleasure out of it <br />As I usually do when I face tragedies <br />We wished surely see each other tomorrow <br />Moreover I cannot share with you the thoughts <br />I have had during these last few hours of that terrible night <br />Touching my fragile life <br />If our dreams were always close together and took same way <br />I would have none of these <br />My soul is flooded of many memories to say to you <br />There are dream and reality <br />When I feel that word amounts to nothing at all <br />Smile around <br />Remain my true <br />My only legacy <br />My everything <br />As I am yours <br />And you are mine <br />The Heaven have to bless us <br /> <br />(dedicated to a wonderful singer, Nancy Ajram)<br /><br />Ahmad Shiddiqi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/love-letter-one/
